Juan = 93 years.

Gabe = 31 years.

Catherine = 25 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age of Juan = J

Let the age of Gabe = G

Let the age of Catherine = C

Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;

..........equation 1

........equation 2

........equation 3

We would solve the linear equations by using the substitution method;

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1;

........equation 4

Substituting equation 2 and equation 4 into equation 3;

Simplifying the equation, we have;

C = 25 years.

To find G; from equation 2

Substituting the value of "C" into equation 2, we have;

G = 31 years.

To find J; from equation 1

Substituting the value of "G" into equation 1, we have;

J = 93 years.

Therefore, Juan is 93 years old, Gabe is 31 years old and Catherine is 25 years old.

yes, i heard the "tea" with james charles and a few other beauty gurus. i believe charles is in the wrong and i believe tati the most. tati didn't lie about james charles but may have exaggerated because he never sexually assaulted anyone. jeffery star is a really good friend to all and out anyone that needs it, until you mess with one of his "sisters"! james will never rise over jeffery or tati, he's way to sensitive and dramatic to rise about them. i think all three of them will make up and be friends again because they always get over it.
