Question 929051: Mark, Taylor, & Brian's ages are consecutive whole numbers. Mark is the youngest, and Brian is the oldest. The sum of their ages is 111. How old is Taylor? Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! z = y + 1
y = x + 1
x + y + z = 111
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
y - z = -1
x - y = -1
x + y + z = 111
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
