Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let tymothy=x

jolin is 12 years older than him

.°.jolin =x+12

sum of their age=58

x+x+12=58

2x=58-12

2x=46

x=46/2

x=23

age of tymothy=23

and age of jolin=23+12

=35

Answer 2

Answer:

let Timothy age be =x

so jolin age will be =x+12

according to question

x+(x+12)=58

2x+12=58

2x=58-12

2x=46

x=46/2

x=23

so jolin age is 23+12

=35 years
