Your age = x
\n" ); document.write( "Father's age = 2x + 12
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3(x + 16) = (2x + 12 + 16) + 30
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 48 = 2x + 58
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Your age = x = 10
\n" ); document.write( "Father's age = 2x + 12 = 2(10) + 12 = 32
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
