Can someone me solve this step by step?

41 and 77

Step-by-step explanation:

x: his age the first time he went to space

y: his age the second time he went to space

the second time he went to space he was 5 years younger than twice the age when he went his first time, then:

y = 2x - 5

the sum of both ages is 118, then:

x + y = 118

If you replace y = 2x - 5 in x + y =118:

x + 2x - 5 = 118

3x = 123

x = 41

replacing x:

41 + y = 118

y = 118 - 41

y = 77

so when he was 77, he was 5 years younger than twice 41 ( 41*2 = 82 => 82 - 5 =77)
