    Option A is correct answer.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Here age of Tina is given to be t

    Cole's age = 3 year less than Tina's age, that is t-3

    which is given to be 18

    therefore equating both we get

    t-3=18

    adding 3 both sides in order to solve for t, we get

    t = 18+3

    t = 21 years

    therefore Equation to find the age of Tina is t-3 = 18 and

    the age of Tina is 21 years.

    Therefore option A is correct answer.
