Aroha is 3 years older than her brother. The sum of Aroha's age and her brother's age is 31. Write and solve and equation to find their ages

x+y=31

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd say that would be the equation bc it doesn't really give ages. Although I could be wrong so sorry if I am

Therefore, Aroha is 17 yrs old and her brother is 14 yrs old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent Aroha's brother's Agee with the letter "b" yrs old.

If Aroha is 3yrs older than her brother, she's : (b+3) yrs old.

The sum of their ages is 31,

b+(b+3)=31

2b+3=31

Collect like terms,

2b=31-3

2b=28

Divide both sides by 2,

b=14

b+3=17
