Mary present age is 7 years while Ed present age is 5 years.

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and number.

Let x represent Mary present age and y represent Ed present age, hence:

x = y + 2   (1)

And:

x - 3 = 2(y - 3)    (2)

x = 7, y = 5

Mary present age is 7 years while Ed present age is 5 years.
