Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let Emma age be x now
Let Joseph age be y now
If Emma is 10 years younger than Joseph, then x = y-10
six years from now:
Emma will be x+6 years
Joseph will be y+6 years
If Joseph's age 6 years from now will exceed twice Emma's age 2 years ago by 3 years, then:
y+6 = 2(x+6-2) + 3
y+6 = 2(x+4)+3
y + 6 = 2x+11
y + 6 = 2(y-10)+!1
y + 6 = 2y-20+11
y - 2y = -9-6
-y = -15
y = 15
Since x = y -10
x = 15-10
x = 5
Hence Emma is 5years old now and Joseph is 15years old now
