You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = gustav age
y = twins age
z = sister age
---
x = y + 3
x = z - 5
x + 2y + z = 39
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x - y = 3
x - z = -5
x + 2y + z = 39
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
