Maria is 12 years older than Jose. In 9 years Maria will be twice as old as Jose. How old are they now?

Answer

This question has multiple answers to narrow it down to one we need to know how old is Maria.

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you divide the triangle in two, tô form a retangle triangle. after, using pythagoream theorem:

18^2 = 14^2 + (x/2)^2

(x^2/4) + 196 = 324

x^2/4 = 324 - 196

x^2/4 = 128

x^2 = 512

x = √512

x = √2^9

x = 16√2 cm

i hope i you.
