\r\n" );
document.write( "Now:               J = C + 15.     (1)   (\"June is 15 years older than Chuck is now. \")\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "5 years from now:  J+5 = 2*(C+5)   (2)   (\"5 years from now June will be twice as old as Chuck.\")\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Substitute (1) into (2). You will get\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "(C+15) + 5 = 2(C+5),\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "C + 20 = 2C + 10,\r\n" );

document.write( "Answer. Chuck is 10 years old now. June is 10+15 = 25 years now.\r\n" );
