X = the age of Mr. Gilliam
His wife is 3 years older, so the age of Mr. Gilliam's wife = x+3
The sum of their ages is 95.

Mr. Gilliam is 46 years old.
Answer:
x = - 3 ± √27 or if you want it in decimal form correct to nearest hundredth:
x = -8.20, 2.20.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 6x - 18 = 0
this will not factor so we use completing the square:
x^2 + 6x = (x + 3)^2 - 9 so:
(x + 3)^2 - 9 - 18 = 0
(x + 3)^2 = 27
x+ 3 = ±√27
x = - 3 ± √27
Answer: x=27
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-4(4)=65
3x-16=65
3x=65+16
3x=81
3x/3=81/3
X=27
