Explanation

Rahul's present age is x. His mother's present age is 2x - 3. After five years, Rahul's mother's age will be (2x - 3) + 5 = 2x + 2.

AI explanation

Rahul's present age is x, so his mother's present age is 2x minus 3. After five years her age will be 2x minus 3 plus 5, which simplifies to 2x + 2.
