Answer:

calls first evening = 26

calls second evening  = 80

calls third evening = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = calls third evening

x+6 = calls first evening

4x = calls second evening

x+6 + 4x + x = total calls = 126

Combine like terms

6x+6 = 126

Subtract 6 from each side

6x =120

Divide by 6

6x/6 =120/6

x = 20

x+6 = calls first evening = 20+6 = 26

4x = calls second evening = 4*20 = 80

Let x = calls third evening = 20
