Jake is 60 years old. Lucy is ten years older than Max. If Lucy's and Max's age combined is half Jakes age, what is Lucy's age?


Jake = 60


Lucy = x + 10


Max = x years old


x + x + 10 = (1/2)(60)


2x + 10 = 30


2x = 30 - 10


2x = 20


x = 20/2


x = 10


Lucy's age = x + 10


Lucy's age = 10 + 10


Lucy's age = 20 years old.
