Mary brother is five years younger than 3 times her age. the sum of their ages 39. how old is mary
1 answer:
Let's say Mary's brother's age is x and Mary's age is y
(1) x = 3y - 5
(2) x + y = 39
Now if we substitute equation (1) into equation (2) we get:
3y - 5 + y = 39
4y = 44
y = 11
Therefor Mary is 11 years old
