<h3>What is a profit?</h3>
The profit is given by the <u>subtraction of the revenue by the total costs</u>.
In this problem:
- For the dozen cookies, she earned a revenue of 6 dollars.
- In all, the total cost of the 12 cookies was of 0.5 + 0.7 + 0.4 + 0.4 = 2 dollars.
6 - 2 = 4, hence she makes a profit of $4.

Let
C=Cynthia's age today
A=Abigail's age today
then
at all times
A=C+8......................(1)
twenty years ago,
A-20=3(C-20)
simplifying
A=3C-40...................(2)
Equate (1) and (2),
C+8=3C-40
8+40=3C-C
C=24
=>
A=32
Check: A-C=8... ok A-20=12 C-20=4 => (A-20)=3(C-20) ...ok
Answer:
Abigail is 32, Cynthia is 24.
