Answer:

I don't have one but we're pretty much there, sorry

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay let's break this down.

Let's use X for the age of Jasmine.

Ella is 4 years older. So... ( [tex]x + 4[/tex] )

In 5 years, 4 times Ella will be 5 times Jasmine. So..

[tex]( x + 5 )[/tex] for Jasmine

[tex](x + 4) + 5 = x + 9[/tex] for Ella

Jasmine's age times 5 will be qual to Ella's.

[tex]5 x (x+4) = x + 9[/tex]  <---  We gotta solve that
