Answer:

The son is 22 and his father is 60. I think.

Let the son’s age be called ‘a’. Dad’s age is ‘b’

b = a + 38.

So instead of calling dad’s age ‘b’ I will call it

a + 38.

Son’s age and the dad’s age together is 82. I can write that like:

a +a + 38 = 82.

Collect like terms:

2a + 38 = 82

INVERSE! YEAH!

2a = 82 - 38

2a = 44

a = 44 / 2

a = 22 .

The son is 22. ‘a’ is 22. Remember that the dad’s age is ‘a+38’?

That means the dad’s age is ‘22+38’. The dad’s age is 60.
