Question

Anya is three years older than her brother, Cole. In 11 years, the sum of their ages will be 79. What is Anya’s current age. PLSSSS HELP

Answer 1

Anya's current age is 30 years and Cole current age is 27 years

Let x represent Anya current age and y represent Cole current age.

Anya is three years older than her brother, Cole. Hence:

x = y + 3

x - y = 3   (1)

In 11 years, the sum of their ages will be 79. Hence:

(x + 11) + (y + 11) = 79

x + y = 57    (2)

Solving equations 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 30, y = 27

Anya's current age is 30 years and Cole current age is 27 years
