Okay so lets call Leah "L" and her cousin "C". We know that L+C=36 ... we also know that Leah is twice her cousins age. Therefore, L=2 times C, or L=2C. This is because Leah's age is equivalent to twice as much as her cousin's. 
Now that you know that L=2C, you can plug this back into the equation. This should make it so that's there's only one variable now! 
L+C=36
(2C)+C=36   ... here we subbed in L=2C
3C=36     ... we add up the C's
C=12   ... we isolate for C by dividing both sides by 3

So her cousin's age is 12 years old. Leah's age is twice that. Thus, she's 24. If you add the two up: 12+24, you indeed get 36. Hope that helps :))

THIS IS THE LAST QUESTION IDK HOW DO SOLVE IT :(
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

6 laps.

Step-by-step explanation:

On Monday she runs 2x + 8 miles, where x miles = the length of the trail.

On Tuesday she runs 4x + 4 miles and this is the same distance as Monday, so

2x + 8 = 4x + 4

4 = 2x

x = 2  miles which is the length of the trail.

So each day she runs 4(2) + 4 = 12 miles.

So on Saturday she runs  12/ 2 = 6 laps.
