Answer:

joneys present age is18 years anh her yonger sisters age olis x-6=18-6=12years

Step-by-step explanation:

let

joneys age be x

his younger sisters age be x-6

after 10 years

joneys age will become x+10

his sisters age will become x-6+10=x+4

sum of there ages is 50

i.e.

x+10+x+4=50

2x+14=50

2x=50-14

2x=36

x=36/2

x=18

therefore joneys present age is18 years anh her yonger sisters age olis x-6=18-6=12years
