X = age of Mikhail
x+x-12 = 36
2x= 36 + 12
2x = 48
x = 48/2
x= 24
I can't exactly see if the 10 at the end is negative, but I'm going to assume that it is.
10x - 6y = 8
5x - 10y = -10
= (2, 2)

Given:
3-pound tub of butter costs $3.85
3.85/3 = 1.2833 per pound.
3n = 3.85
3(1.2833) = 3.85
3.8499 = 3.85
3.85 = 3.85
(2x - 1)(x + 2y - 3) =
2x(x + 2y - 3) + (-1)(x + 2y - 3) =
2x^2 + 4xy - 6x - x - 2y + 3 =
2x^2 + 4xy - 7x - 2y + 3
