Answer 1

Answer:

Lana is 15 and Susan is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

let Lana's age=x

Susan's age=2x

Their ages four years ago:

Lana=x-4

Susan=2x-4

Now their ages 4years ago was 37 so:

x-4+2x-4=37

3x-8=37

3x=37+8

3x=45

x=15

Since Lana's age is x,she is 15years

Since Susan's age is 2x,she is 30years
