Answer:

Ana is 7 years older than her brother Juan. In two years, Ana will have double that of Juan. How old is everyone today?

x= John's age

x+7 = age Ana

in 2 years Juan will be x+2, Ana will be x+7+2 =x+9 and her age will be double that of Juan.

How old is everyone today?

2(x+2)= x+9

2x+4=x+9

2x-x=9-4

x= 5

Juan is 5 years old, Ana is 12 years old
