Kim's age is twice of that of her sister. We'll let k2 = Kim and k = Kim's sister.
So, k2. When you add Kim's age to her sister age you get 36.
Because Kim is twice the age of her sister k2. And because it said 'add' then we put a + sign. k2 + s = 36. Now let's solve it.
k2 + k = 36 < Given
3k = 36 < Combine like terms
k = 12 < Divide both sides by 3
We know Kim's sister is 12 y/o but what about Kim herself? Earlier we assigned Kim to k2. Substitute 12 for k and you get 12(2) = 24
Kim's sister is 12 y/o and Kim is 24 y/o

Answer:
Kim's age is 16 and her sister's age is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) If Kim's age is 2x then her sisters age is x years.
Also x + 2x = 24.
The equation is 3x = 24.
b) Solving 3x = 24 gives x = 8 and 2x = 16.
So Kim's age is 16 and her sister's age is 8.

ΔTXV is an <span>isosceles triangle because ∡T = ∡X therefore TV = VX.
3x - 24 = 2x + 1 |subtract 2x from both sides
x - 24 = 1 |add 24 to both sides
x = 25
