Answer:

Your present age is 2 less than your friend's age. Twice your age is 11 more than your friend's present age. What is your age and your friend's age?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let your age be x years and friend's age be y years.

According to first condition,

x = y - 2. ------(1)

According to second condition,

2x = y + 11. ------(2)

Substituting eq. 1 in eq. 2,

2( y - 2 ) = y + 11

2y - 4 = y + 11

2y - y = 11 + 4

y = 15

Substituting the value of y in eq. (1),

x = 15 - 2

x = 13

So, your age is 13 years and your friend's age is 15 years.

Hope it helps....
