G is the smallest

H is the largest

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Which of the statements is true

First, we need to solve for G, H and J as follows:

--- (1)

--- (2)

--- (3)

Make G the subject in (1)

Substitute 21 - H for G in (3)

Collect Like Terms

Make J the subject

Substitute H - 12 for J in (2)

Collect Like Terms

Solve for H

Substitute 18 for H in

Substitute 18 for H in

So, we have that:

Hence, we can conclude that:

G is the smallest

H is the largest
