Mary: x yrs old
Mike: 3x yrs old

In four yrs:

Mary: x+4 yrs old
Mike: 3x+4 yrs old

As the text of task:

3x+4=2(x+4)
3x+4=2x+8
3x-2x=8-4
x=4

Mary is 4 yrs old

X-the age of Mike
y-the age of his sister

x=3y

x+4=2(y+4)
3y+4=2y+8
3y-2y=8-4
y=4 years

x=3*4=12 years

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

y<6

Step-by-step explanation:

1 /3 y +  1/4  >  3 /8y

1 /3 y +  1/4  −  3/ 8 y > 3/ 8 y −  3/ 8 y

− 1 /24 y +  1 4  > 0

−1 /24 y +  1 /4  −  1/ 4  > 0 −  1 /4

−1 /24 y >  −1/ 4

Multiply both sides by 24/(-1).

y<6
