    Answer:

    The car is 13 years old

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Lets say Car is x and the Truck is y, so the trucks age = x + 3 = y

        Lets find the value of the Car or x

    x + 3 = 1/2(x + 7)——- >

    first we will divide x by 1/2 and 7 by 1/2, So…

    x + 3 = (x / 1/2 + 7 / 1/2)——- >

    x + 3 = 1/2x + 3.5——->

    next Isolate variable x,

    x + 1/2x = 3 + 3.5

    1/2x = 6.5, So…

    x = 13 and in turn, y = 13 + 3

    🙂
