Solution
let Anglea's age be x and genesis age be y
Acc to the 1st statment :-
x - 4 = y
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x - y = 4 ----- ( i )
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Acc to the 2nd statement :-
4 years later :-
⠀⠀⠀⠀
angela's age = x + 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
genesis's age = y + 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x + 4 = 2 ( y + 4 )
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x + 4 = 2y - 8
⠀⠀⠀⠀
2y - x = 8 - 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
2y - x = 4 ----- ( ii )
⠀⠀⠀⠀
adding eq i and ii
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x - y + 2y - x = 4 + 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
y = 8
⠀⠀⠀⠀
putting value of y in eq ( i )
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x - y = 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x - 8 = 4
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x = 4 + 8
⠀⠀⠀⠀
x = 12
⠀⠀⠀⠀
