Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Jacks age: x-14

Jack's brothers age: x

In 6 years time:

Jack's age: x-8

Jack's brother's age: x + 6

Given that:

x+6 = 2(x-8)

Simplify:

x+6 = 2x-16

x+22 = 2x

2x = x+22

x = 22

we mentioned earlier that Jack's brother's age was x. but Jack's age was x-14.

So, Jack's age: 22-14 = 8

Hope this helps.

Good Luck
