Question 390084
Sharon's mom is eight more than twice her age. Her father is 3 years older than her mother. If the three family members have lived a total of 94 years, how old are each family member?
..
Let Sharon's age be x 
Mom = 2x+8
father = 2x+8+3= 2x+11
...
x+2x+8+2x+11=94
5x+19=94
-19    -19
5x=75
/5
x= 15 sharon's age.
Mother = 2x+8= 2*15+8=38 years
Father = 38+3 = 41 years
