You need to set up the equations solve for x or y. and substitute. I can give you the starting equations, but i cant find the answer and I don't remember how to do all the steps, but the first two equations (the ones you use to solve for x or y to use to solve for a number to subsitute. x-12=y y-14=3x and there should be one more for that they met two years ago.
