Diego's sister is twice his age minus 9 years. She is also as old as half the sum of the ages of Diego and both of his 12-year-o

slava [35]

Answer:

Diego is 14 years old.

Sister is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Diego's age

x + 24

2x-9 = 2

First to get rid of the fraction we multiply each side by 2

2(2x-9) = 2((x+24)/2)

4x-18 = x+24

The we isolate x

4x-18 = x+24

-x+18 -x+18

3x = 42 Now we divide each side 3

3 3

x = 14

So Diego is 14

Now we can solve for his sister. We can use one of the two equations from earlier to do this.

Plug 14 in for x and then solve for his sister

2(14)-9

28-9

His sister is 19
