Answer:

Jenny´s age is 19 and her mother is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Plug in the first value of the set

41 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 12 years old.

2. Plug in the second value of the set

50 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 15 years old.

3. Plug in the third value of the set

59 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 18 years old.

4. Plug in the fourth value of the set

Therefore Jenny´s 19 years old.

5. Calculate Jenny´s mother age:

As the sum of their ages is 62 ages, we have the following equation

where

x=Jenny´s age

y=Jenny´s mother age

Therefore Jenny's mother age is 43 years old.
