Andre came up with the following puzzle. “I am three years younger than my brother, and I am 2 years older than my sister. My mom's age is one less than three times my brother's age. When you add all our ages, you get 87.

Jada writes this equation for the sum of the ages: (x) + (x +3) + (x -2) + 3(x +3) -1 = 87. Explain the meaning of the variable and each term of the equation.
