tom is twice as old as harry.
\n" ); document.write( "t = 2h
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "in a years time their combine ages will be 5 time harry,present age.
\n" ); document.write( "(t+1)+(h+1) = 5h
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "how old is tomorrow ?
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute 2h for t in the 2nd equation to solve for \"h\":
\n" ); document.write( "(2h+1)+(h+1)= 5h
\n" ); document.write( "3h + 2 = 5h
\n" ); document.write( "2h = 2
\n" ); document.write( "h = 1 (Harry's age now)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Since t=2h, t=2 (Tom's age now)
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------\r
