(With solution pls) tnx...

Answer 1

Nila's age = X yrs old, now.
Nila's age = (X-3) yrs old, 3 yrs ago.

Ricky's age = 2(X-3) yrs old, 3 yrs ago.
Ricky-Nila = 2(X-3)-(X-3) = (X-3) yrs
older than Nila.

Ricky's age, now = X + (X-3) = (2x-3)
yrs old.


Ricky's age 10 yrs from now = 10(2x-3) =
(20x-30) yrs old.

Answer 2

Correction:
Ricky's age 10 yrs from now =(2x-3)+10 =
2x+7.

Answer 3

2x+7
