Answer:

[tex]x \geq 3(y + z)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to say that:

Mary's amount is x.

Ashley's amount is y.

Oscar's amount is z.

Mary has at least 3 times the amount of cash that ashley and oscar have combined

Ashley's and Oscar's combined amount is y + z.

3 times this amount is 3(y + z).

At least 3 times means that z is equal or greater than 3(y + z).

So

[tex]x \geq 3(y + z)[/tex]
