Answer: Lisa is 22 and Myra is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Myra's age be x, and because Lisa is 5 years older,She would be x+5.
To find x, We use the sum of heir ages now which is 19
x + (x+5) = 19.
Combine like terms, and you have 2x+5=19.
By solving for x, you should get x(Myra)=7, and x+5(Lisa)=12.
To find their ages in 10 years, simply add 10 to each number which would be Myra 17 and Lisa 22
