Sorry I don’t know this one!
Is it 1-4/5 x 5/12 or 4/5 x 12
For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: Maggie's age
y: Age of Maggie's brother
We write the system of equations that models the problem.
We have then:
![y = 2x-3\\x + y = 24](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20y%20%3D%202x-3%5C%5Cx%20%2B%20y%20%3D%2024%20%20)
We solve the system of equations.
For this, we use substitution:
![x + (2x-3) = 24](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20x%20%2B%20%282x-3%29%20%3D%2024%20%20)
From here, we clear the value of x:
![3x - 3 = 24\\3x = 24 + 3\\3x = 27](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%203x%20-%203%20%3D%2024%5C%5C3x%20%3D%2024%20%2B%203%5C%5C3x%20%3D%2027%20%20)
![x = \frac{27}{3}\\x = 9](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20x%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B27%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5Cx%20%3D%209%20%20%20)
Answer:
Maggie is 9 years old
