Answer 1

Olivia's age equation: X = Y - 6 and age is 2 years.

Peyton's age equation: 3Y = 24 and age is 8 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let us assume that Olivia's age be X years and Peyton's age be Y years.

From the give statements we can get that

Y = X+6

3Y = 24

which means Peyton is 8 years old.

Step 2:

X = Y-6

   = 8-6

  = 2

and Olivia is 2 years old.
