Sarah's age exceeds vika’s age by 16 years. four years ago, sarah was twice as old as vika was then. find the present age of each.

Let Sarah's present age =x

Let Vika's present age =y

Sarah's age exceeds Vika’s age by 16 years.

Four years ago,

Sarah's present age =x-4

Vika's present age =y-4

Four years ago, Sarah was twice as old as Vika was then.

Plugging the value of x from equation (1) in (2)

y=20

x=y+16 =20+16 = 36

Sarah's present age =36

Vika's present age =16

i think ur answer is   (3,-1)
