Answer:

Carlos born in 1944

Julio born in 1945

Ricky born in 1946

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Carlos age

x+1 = Julio age

x+2 = Ricky age

x + x+1 + x+2 = 129

3x + 3 = 129

3x = 126

x = 42 (Carlos age)

x+1 = 43 (Julio age)

x+2 = 44 (Ricky age)

1990 - 42 = 1944 (year Carlos born)

1990 - 43 = 1945 (year Julio born)

1990 - 44 = 1946 (year Ricky born)
