Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Stephen has 9 trees

Alice has 21 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>At the beginning:</u>

Stephen = x trees

Alice = x + 12 trees

Alice = (x + 12) - 4 trees

Stephen = x + 10 trees

Total = 36

Then

$((x+12)-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+12-4)+(x+10)=36\\ \\(x+8)+(x+10)=36\\ \\x+8+x+10=36\\ \\2x+18=36\\ \\2x+18-18=36-18\\ \\2x=18\\ \\x=9$

Stephen - 9 trees

Alice - 9 + 12 = 21 trees
