Let x = Jack's age
Let y = Malonie's age
Based on the given information, we can set up the following equations:
1) x - y = 4 (Jack is 4 years older than Malonie)
2) x + y = 28 (The sum of their ages is 28)
Solving this system of equations will give us the values of x and y, which represent Jack's and Malonie's ages.
