SOLUTION: when tim started football 3 years ago, his coach was twice his age. currently tim's coach is 10 years older than him how old is tim now please help thank you

Hi,

*Note: his coach was and always will be 3 years older than Tim

let x be Tim'sage three years ago. His coach then was (x+10) (three years older)

write as we read***

(x + 10) = 2x

10 = x  tim was 10 years old at that time

Now Tim is 13 years old
