Question 328034
Let x = Icas age

We know that Ayie's age will be 8 more than Icas' age. (8 + x)

The sum of both ages is 32.

Let's set up an equation:

(8 + x) + x = 32

= 8 + (x + x) = 32

= 8 + 2x =32

= 2x = 24

x = 12

So Icas is 12 and

Ayie is 20 (8 + 12 = 20)

Check your solutions by plugging x into the first equation: 
8 + 12 + 12 = 32 Yes!!!
