Let Cesar's, Carmen's and Dalila's amount be represented by x, y and z respectfully.

Since they're money sum up to $95.34, the first expression will be;

x+y+z=95.34

Carmen_y_ is $12.12 less than cesar_x, so the equation will be ;

y=x-12.12

Cesar_x_raised $35more than Dalila_z. So the equation will be;

x=z+35

making z the subject, z=x-35 .

Substituting the Second equation into the first one, we get;

x+x-12.12+z=95.34

Subtracting the third equation into the new equation we get;

x+x-12.12+x-35=95.34

Simplifying, we get 3x- 47.12= 95.34.

3x=142.46
