    For this item, we let x be Maya's age. By the representation, Adrian age will be,

    0.5x + 4

    And that Lin's age will become,

    0.5x + 4 - 7

    Summing up all the ages,

    x + (0.5x + 4) + (0.5x - 3) = 61

    The value of x from the equation is 30. Therefore, Lin's age is,

    0.5 (30) - 3 = 12
