Answer:

12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the currently  age of Max.

Let x be the current age of Max and y be the current age of Zeke.

According to question

2(x-3)+y=26

Current age of Zeke=8 years old

Then substitute the value

2x-6+8=26

2x+2=26

2x=26-2=24

x=\frac{24}{2}=12

Hence, the current age of Max=12 years old

Let m be max's age
Let z be zekes age
2m+z=26
Sub in zekes age
2m+8=26
2m=26-8
2m=18
M=18/2
M=9
Remember: this is Max's age THREE YEARS AGO. Therefore, add three to get his current age
9+3=12
Therefore, Max is currently 12
Hope this helps!
