x = mark
\n" ); document.write( "y = danielle
\n" ); document.write( "x = y - 60
\n" ); document.write( "4(x - 3) = y - 3
\n" ); document.write( "Substitution
\n" ); document.write( "4(y-60)-3 = y - 3
\n" ); document.write( "Distribute the 4
\n" ); document.write( "4y - 240 - 3 = y - 3
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 240
\n" ); document.write( "y = 80
\n" ); document.write( "x=80-60=20 years old for Mark
