Answer 1

Explanation

x+38=2(x+14)

The man is 38 and daughter is 14. They both will age in same years (x).

So, in how many years(x) will they both age until man is equal(=) to 2 times his daughters age?

x+ 38=2(x+14)

x+38=2x+ 28

10= x

In 10 years, the man will be 2twice as old as his daughter.
