Julie's age based on the scenario given cab be obtained by using the equation ; j + 2j - 6 = 36

Let :

Julie's age = j ________(1)

Helga's age = 2j - 6 ____(2)

Sum of their ages = 36

Hence, to find Julie's age, j we can use the equation :

(1) + (2) = 36

j + (2j - 6) = 36

j + 2j - 6 = 36

To find Julie's age, we can use the equation ;

j + 2j - 6 = 36

3j - 6 = 36

3j = 36 + 6

3j = 42

j = 42 / 3

j = 14

Hence, Julie's age is 14 years.
