Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of rick = x

age of sara = y

age of marcos = a

age of jade = b

Rick is 4 years younger than Sara.

x = y - 4

Marcos is 3 years older than Jade.

a = b + 3

Rick's age is twice the age of Marcos and Jade's ages combined.

x = 2(a+b)

The youngest is 9 years old.

The youngest is jade because rick and sara are the parents and marcos is older than she is.

b = 9

How old is each??

a = b + 3

a = 9 + 3 = 12

Marcos is 12 years old

x = 2(a+b)

x = 2 (12 + 9)

x = 2 (21) = 42

Rick is 42 years old

x = y - 4

42 = y - 4

y = 42 + 4 = 46

Sara is 46 years old
