Question

the sum of Denise's and Javier's ages is 26 years.If denise is 4 years older than Javier, find Javier's age.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Javier's age be x years

So Denise's age = (x + 4) years

Now given that

x + (x + 4) = 26

= x + x + 4 = 26

= 2x + 4 = 26

= 2x = 26 - 4

= 2x = 22

= x = 11

So Javier's age = x = 11 years

& Denise's age = (x + 4) = 11 + 4 = 15 years
