Lets call them R for Rex, F for Father and M for Morther

F - 30 = R

M = 3R

F - 2 = M

If we subtract the third equation from the first one we get

F - 30 = R

F - 2 = M

------------

0 - 28 = R - M

or

M - R = 28

Now, if M = 3R we can substitute that into the above and we ger

3R - R = 28

2R = 28

R = 14

So, if Rex is 14, his mother is 3 x 14 = 42 and his father is 14 + 30 = 44 - which is 42 + 2.
