Question 1073058
.
<pre>
The condition produces these two equations for the women's current aje

A = 3J,               (1)
A - 10 = 5*(J-10).    (2)

Substitute an expression A = 3J of (1) into (2) to get

3J - 10 = 5(J-10),

3J - 10 = 5J - 50,

50 - 10 = 5J - 3J,

40 = 2J   --->  J = {{{40/2}}} = 20.

<U>Answer</U>.  Jayde is currently 20 years old. Anny is 3*20 = 60 years old.
