Solve: Three brothers each arranged to spend an evening with a woman he had never met before. Each wanted to show off and decided to buy a box of candy at the same store and each bought tickets at the same ticket outlet.

Andy bought honey-based candies because he wanted to show what a sweet guy he could bee.
Tooley bought chews because he wanted to show that he was a choosy buy.
Marty bought nuts.

When it came time to leave, each brother grabbed the wrong candy box and ticket envelope. None of them took the candy or the tickets that belong to him. Each took the tickets of one brother and the candy of the other. Andy didn't have Marty's candy. You'll have to figure out the rest.

Solve: 3x - 18= -3
