Answer 2

The answer to your question is Kevin is 6 years old.

Explanation:

Process

1.- Assign a letter to Daniel and another letter to Kevin

Daniel = d

Kevin = k

2.- Write equation that help to solve this problem

k = d + 3 equation l

k = 4d equation ll four years ago

3.- Solve the system by substitution. Substitute equation ll in equation l

4d = d + 3

-Solve for d

4d - d = 3

3d = 3

d = 1

-Find k

k = 1 + 3

k = 4

4.- Calculate the age Kevin has now

Kevin's age = 4 + 2

= 6
