Answer:

Danielle is 7 and her counselor is 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the age of Danielle and y be the age of her counselor then:

y=3x

x+y=28

We can solve this using substitution. In this case, substitute 3x for y since y=3x...

x+3x=28

   4x=28

Divide both sides by 4 (division property of equality)

x=7

y=3x=3(7)=21

Danielle is 7 and her counselor is 21
