Answer:

46 and 22

Step-by-step explanation:

let the father b (f) and d son is (s)

so

f=3s.....(1)

(f+10) +(s+10)=68 .... (2)

substitute f=3s in equation (2)

we have

(3s+10)+(s+10)=68

4s+20=68

4s=68-20

4s=48

s=12 .......(3)

substitute (3) in (1)

f=3*12

which f=36

in 10 year time

f+10 =46

s+10=22

rjkz [21]

Answer:

x₁ = (1 + √43)/6

x₂ = (1 - √43)/6

Step-by-step explanation:

6x² - 2x = 7

6x² - 2x - 7 = 0

Formula

ax² + bx + c = 0

a = 6 ; b = - 2 ; c = - 7

x₁/₂ = [-b ± √(b²- 4ac)]/2a

x₁/₂ = (2 ± √4 + 4×6×-7)/12

x₁/₂ = (2 ± √172)/12

x₁/₂ = (2 ± 2√43)/12

x₁/₂ = 2(1 ± √43)/12

x₁/₂ = (1 ± √43)/6

x₁ = (1 + √43)/6

x₂ = (1 - √43)/6
