I think not.
Father = 30 + x
Son = 5 + x
so
30 + x = 2 (5+x)
30 + x = 10 + 2 x
x = 20 years
=========================
check
=====================-=-==
30 + 20 = 50
5 + 20 = 25
sure enough, 50 = twice 25
Father = 30 + x
Son = 5 + x
so
30 + x = 2 (5+x)
30 + x = 10 + 2 x
x = 20 years

30 + 20 = 50
5 + 20 = 25
sure enough, 50 = twice 25
