Can someone help me with this math homework please!

Ben is three times as old as samantha, who is two years older than half of michel's age. if michel is 12. how old is ben?

Submarines control how much they float or sink in the ocean by changing the volume of air and water contained in large ballast tanks. when the tanks are completely full of water, the submarine increases its overall mass and sinks down to the bottom. when the tanks are completely full of air, the submarine reduces its overall mass and floats to the surface. depending on the density of the seawater surrounding the submarine, it will pump seawater in or out of the tanks in order to achieve the same overall density as the sea water and float neutrally in the water. the volume of the submarine never changes. when the tanks are completely full of water, a submarine with a volume of 7.8\times10^3\text{ m}^37.8×10 3 m 3 7, point, 8, times, 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript has a total mass of 8\times10^6\text{ kg}8×10 6 kg8, times, 10, start superscript, 6, end superscript, space, k, g. the density of the seawater is 10^3\text{ kg/m}^310 3 kg/m 3 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, k, g, slash, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. to make that submarine float neutrally, and neither float nor sink in the ocean, what volume of water does that submarine need to subtract from its tanks?

Which of these statements is correct? the system of linear equations 6x - 5y = 8 and 12x - 10y = 16 has no solution. the system of linear equations 7x + 2y = 6 and 14x + 4y = 16 has an infinite number of solutions. the system of linear equations 8x - 3y = 10 and 16x - 6y = 22 has no solution. the system of linear equations 9x + 6y = 14 and 18x + 12y = 26 has an infinite number of solutions.
