Formulate a system of equations for the situation below and solve. Cantwell Associates, a real estate developer, is planning to build a new apartment complex consisting of one-bedroom units, two-bedroom townhouses, and three-bedroom townhouses. A total of 156 units is planned. The total number of two- and three-bedroom townhouses will equal the number of one-bedroom units. If the number of one-bedroom units will be 3 times the number of three- bedroom townhouses, find how many units of each type will be in the complex. one-bedroom units units two-bedroom townhouses units three-bedroom townhouses units
