Answer:

x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

9 years ago she was an age ( x )

she is now 3 times older

9 years before it was x - 9

so balance it out

x + 9 = 3 ( x - 9)

expand

3 x x = 3x

3 x -9 = -27

x+9 = 3x - 27

x-3x = x-2x

-2x = -36

x = 18

The girl's present age?

\huge\underline\mathbb{\red S\pink {0} \purple {L} \blue {UT} \orange {1}\green {ON :}}

Let the girl's present age be x years

Girl's age 9 years ago = x - 9 years

Girl's age 9 years hence = x + 9 years

\sf\underline{\underline{\green{ACCORDING \: TO \: THE \: QUESTION, \: }}}

 =  > x + 9 =  3 \: ( x - 9)

 =  > x + 9 = 3x - 27

 =  > 3x - x = 9 + 27

 =  > 3x - x = 36

 =  > 2x = 36

 =  > x =  \frac{36}{2}

 =  > x = 18

\sf\underline{\underline{\green{HENCE, \: }}}

The girl's present age is 18 years.
