First can you change
2x + y = -12
To have y as the subject
Looks like y = ???
Charmaine= x
William=x+3
3 times Charmaine = 3x
2times William = 2x+6
5x+6=76
5x=76-6
5x=70
X=14
Charmaine is 14
William is 3 years older so is 17
Check:
17x2= 34
14x3=42
34+42=76
So Charmaine is 14
William is 17

Answer: x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
15 / 20 = (2x + 3) / 28
cross multiply
15(28) = 20(2x + 3)
420 = 40x + 60
360 = 40x
x = 9
X > 90 idk if thats what u mean or not
