If the man's age was 6 times as old as his daughter and will be twice after 18 years then the present age of daughter is 7 and her father is 32.

Given that age of a man was 6 times as old as his daughter and in 18 years, he will be twice as old as his daughter.

We are required to find the present ages of both daughter and her father.

Let the age of daughter before 2 years be x.

The equations are as under:

In this way the father's age was 6x.

Present age of daughter be x+2,

Present age of her father be 6x+2.

After 18 years the age of daughter be x+2+18=x+20

After 18 years the age of her father be 6x+2+18=6x+20

It is also given that the age of her father will be 2 times the age of the daughter. So, 2(x+20)=6x+20.

2x+40=6x+20

40-20=6x-2x

20=4x

x=5

Present age of daughter=5+2=7 years.

Present age of her father=6*5+2=30+2=32 years.

Hence if the man's age was 6 times as old as his daughter and will be twice after 18 years then the present age of daughter is 7 and her father is 32.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.

Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is

x + 1125

After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that

(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)

x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500

10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500

9x = 675

x = 675/9

x = 75

Porky's current weight is

75 + 50 = 125 lbs

Kobe's current weight is

(75 + 1125) + 50

= 1250 lbs
