Respuesta :

The present ages of Ann and Julie are 12 years and 8 years, respectively.

What are the current ages of Ann and Julie?

Let x, y are the current ages of Ann and Julie, whose features are synthetized in the following linear equations:

Ann is 4 years older than Julie;

x = y + 4

x - y = 4                                (1)

4 years ago, Ann was twice as old as Julie;

x - 4 = 2 · (y - 4)

x - 4 = 2 · y - 8

x - 2 · y = - 4                         (2)

Now we proceed to determine the ages of Ann and Julie by solving the system of linear equations;

(x, y) = (12, 8)

Hence, The present ages of Ann and Julie are 12 years and 8 years.
