The sum of three numbers is 32. Twice the first minus the second is 5 less than the third. The third is the second minus three times the first. Find the numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "=========================
\n" ); document.write( "F + S + T = 32
\n" ); document.write( "2F - S = T - 5
\n" ); document.write( "T = S - 3F
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Sub for T in the 1st 2 equations.
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "F + S + S - 3F = 32
\n" ); document.write( "-2F + 2S = 32 ---> F - S = -16 ---> F = S-16
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "2F - S = S - 3F - 5 ---> 5F - 2S = -5
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "F = S-16
\n" ); document.write( "5F - 2S = -5
\n" ); document.write( "Sub for F
\n" ); document.write( "5(S-16) - 2S = -5
\n" ); document.write( "3S - 80 = -5
\n" ); document.write( "S = 25
\n" ); document.write( "============
\n" ); document.write( "F = 9
\n" ); document.write( "T = -2
\n" ); document.write( "9, 25, -2 are the 3 numbers in order
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
