E= Emma's age
emma's sister's age= e+9 (emma's age plus 9)

e+9=49
(isolate your variable)
e+9-9=49-9
e=40
Emma is 40 years old
To check: Emma's sister is 9 years older right? take emmas age 40 plus the nine more years and you still get the total of 49! hope that helps good luck

You don't need the names since there is 4367, and that would only be about 1/9th of the whole amount of members, so b is out of the question. you need average people to make it, so d is out of the question, and picking a random letter out of the alphabet is as arbitrary as a, but you are adding the effect of Inconsistency so I would say Let the gym management decide which members should be surveyed is the right answer
