w age of woman.
\n" ); document.write( "d age of daughter.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, \"w=3d\"
\n" ); document.write( "In eleven more years, \"w%2B11=2%28d%2B11%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Find daugher's present age.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Substitute w from the first equation into the second equation.
\n" ); document.write( "()+11=2(d+11)
\n" ); document.write( "(3d)+11=2(d+11)
\n" ); document.write( "3d+11=2d+22
\n" ); document.write( "3d-2d+11=22
\n" ); document.write( "3d-2d=22-11
\n" ); document.write( "d=11, daughter is eleven years old now.
