Answer:

J = 2M and J + M = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let John's age be J

Let Mary's age be M

Now we are given that John is twice as old as Mary

So, John's age = J = 2M

Now we are given that The sum of their ages is 52.

So, J+M=52

Thus the system of equations could be used to solve the problem is  J = 2M and J+M=52

Hence Option B is correct.
