Answer:
sorry your question is wrong as if we take your age after 9 years be 3/2 of your sister after 9 years, the ans comes negative 10 but if we take your age as 10 or -10 the ans is correct. hope it helps plz mark as branlist
Step-by-step explanation:
let your age be x and your sisters be y
x=3y ------1
9+x=(1.5)(y+9) -------2
by 1,2
9+x=(1.5)(((1/3)+x)+9)
9+x=(1.5)((1+3x+27)/3)
9+x=0.5*(3x+28)
9+x=1.5x+14
x=1.5x+5
-0.5x=5
x=-10
