Answer:
Natalie's age is 14
Sasha's age is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
Sasha's age be "s", and
Natalie's age be "n"
<u>Sum of Sasha and Natalie is 31:</u>
s + n = 31
<u>Twice Natalie is 11 more than Sasha:</u>
2n = s + 11
We ca solve this equation for s first:
s = 2n - 11
We put this into first equation and solve for n first:
s + n = 31
2n - 11 + n = 31
3n = 31 + 11
3n = 42
n = 42/3 = 14
Natalie's age is 14
Also, s = 2n - 11
s = 2(14) - 11
s = 28 - 11
s = 17
Sasha's age is 17
