Mark is 11 years older than his sister. in 8 years he will be twice as old as she will be then.How old are they now

Respuesta :

x=Marks sister's age
x+11= Marks age
x+11 +8 = 2x+8
x+19=2x +8
x+19-x=2x-x +8
19-8=x+8-8
11=x Marks sisters age in 8 years
11-8= 3 Marks sisters age now
x+11=22 Marks age in 8 years
22-8= 14 Marks age now
