Answer:
a) x+3=19
Explanation:
a)
x is the age of Ronald , Collin is three years older than Ronald , so if we add up x(Ronald's age) and 3(the difference between both of their ages), we would get Collin's age(19) . That is the explanation for this equation.
b)
x+3=19
x=19-3
x=16
thus , x is 16 , in other words , Ronald's age is 16.
