So k=katie's' age
m=mara's age
k is 2 times as old as m
k=2m
sum is 24
add means sum
k+m=24
so we have
k+m=24 and
k=2m
subsitute
2m+m=24
add
3m=24
divide both sides by 3
m=8
subsitute again
k=2m
k=2(8)
k=16
katie=16
mara=8

Step-By-Step Explanation:
1. Take 9 • 11 = 99
2. Take 10 / 2 = 5
3. Take 2 + 10 - 99 = -87
So -87 would be your final answer. Hope that helped!
Answer:
x = -4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
X + B = C
x + (-8/4) = (22/-9)
x = (8/4) - (22/9)
x = 2 - 22/9 = 18/9 - 22/9 = -4/9
