Answer:

Naomi=x

Afful=2x

In 5 years time= +5

So Naomi=x+5

and and Afful=2x+5

=x+5+2x+5=34

=3x+10=34

Subtract 10 on both sides

3x=24

Divide 3 on both sides

X=8

Check:

X=8

Naomi=16

In 5 years

=16+5=21

Naomi=8+5=13

13+21=34

Hope this helps

Answer:

Afful is 21 and Naomi is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the age of Afful and N represent the age of Naomi.

The sum of their ages is 34. In other words:

A+N=34

In 5 years time, Afful will be two times the age of Naomi <em>now</em>. In other words:

A+5=2N

Solve for the system. Substitute.

A+N=34\\A=34-N\\34-N+5=2N\\39=3N\\N=13\\\\A=34-N\\A=34-(13)\\A=21

Afful is currently 21 and Noami is currently 13.
