You can put this solution on YOUR website! It means exactly what the transcription into symbols means. That description has no complications. A better way to say that: The description can be transcribed into symbolism without complications.
"your age", needs to be assigned a variable; whichever you want as the variable.
"your age, call this x.
"your age five years ago", x-5.
"Twice your age five years ago", 2(x-5).
