(1)i+ mother =103 kg(2)i+ father =113 kg(3) father + mother =126 kg(1)+(2)+(3)(i+ mother )+(i+ father )+( father + mother )=103 kg+113 kg+126 kg2⋅i+2⋅ mother +2⋅ father =103 kg+113 kg+126 kg2⋅i+2⋅ mother +2⋅ father =342 kg2⋅(i+ mother + father )=342 kgi+ mother + father =3422 kgi+ mother + father =171 kg
The three of us weight all together 171 kg
The answer is D)

s=son
m=mother
f=father
s+m=103, s+f=113, m+f=126
Solve the following system:
{m+s = 103 | (equation 1)
f+s = 113 | (equation 2)
f+m = 126 | (equation 3)
Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{f+0 m+s = 113 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+s = 103 | (equation 2)
f+m+0 s = 126 | (equation 3)
Subtract equation 1 from equation 3:
{f+0 m+s = 113 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+s = 103 | (equation 2)
0 f+m-s = 13 | (equation 3)
Subtract equation 2 from equation 3:
{f+0 m+s = 113 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+s = 103 | (equation 2)
0 f+0 m-2 s = -90 | (equation 3)
Divide equation 3 by -2:
{f+0 m+s = 113 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+s = 103 | (equation 2)
0 f+0 m+s = 45 | (equation 3)
Subtract equation 3 from equation 2:
{f+0 m+s = 113 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+0 s = 58 | (equation 2)
0 f+0 m+s = 45 | (equation 3)
Subtract equation 3 from equation 1:
{f+0 m+0 s = 68 | (equation 1)
0 f+m+0 s = 58 | (equation 2)
0 f+0 m+s = 45 | (equation 3)
