Using equations to solve the word problem, Katherine's age is 8 years

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

Word problem are often mathematical problem that are represented in words and sometimes can be solved using an equation.

To solve this problem, we have to represent the problem using mathematical equations;

Let;

Katherine's age = x²

Alexandra = 5(x + 1)

Sum of their age = 109

5(x + 1) + x² = 109

5x + 5 + x² = 109

x² + 5x - 104 = 0

Solving for the equation; x = 8

Katherine's age is 8
