The age of the grandson is 7 years and the grandfather is 84 years if the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

Let's suppose the age of the grandsons is x years and

age of the grandfather's age is y years

Here some data are misprinted, so we are assuming the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

Then according to the problem:

12x = y  (as in 1 year, there are 12 months)

y -x = 77 (as difference in age is 77)

After solving both equations, we get:

x = 7 years and y = 84 years

Thus, the age of the grandson is 7 years and the grandfather is 84 years if the grandson's age in months is equal to the age of grandpa in years and the difference in age is 77.

Molodets [167]
The triangle on the left appears to be congruent with the triangle on the right.  If this observation is actually valid, then x+7 = 2x-5.  12=x  Yes, I realize that this doesn't match any of the answer choices, 'tho the 4th choice is the only one that contains "12."  Would you please share the instructions for this problem.
