Answer: 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let m = Matt's age

let a = Andy's

:

Write an equation for each statement

:

Matt is four years younger than twice his cousin Andy’s age.

m = 2a - 4

The sum of their ages is greater than 35.

m + a > 35

What is the youngest age that Andy can be?

replace m with (2a-4) from the 1st statement

2a - 4 + a > 35

3a > 35 + 4

a > 39/3

a > 13

least integer has to be a = 14

:

:

Check, find m

m = 2(14) - 4

m = 24

24 + 14 = 38 greater than 35

If a = 13

m = 2(13) - 4

m = 22

22 + 13 = 35 which is not greater than 35
