Andy's age = x
Jeff's age = x-2
Andy's age in five years = x+5
Jeff's age in five years = x-2+5
The sum of their ages in five years = x+5 + x-2+5
x + 5 + x - 2 + 5 = 40
2x + 8 = 40
<u> -8 -8</u>
2x = 32
<u> :2 :2</u>
x = 16
x - 2 = 14
<u>Andy is 16 years old and Jeff is 14 years old</u>

Answer: 21,875 sqm
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Find the gross area of the garden.
Square 150m = 22,500 sqm.
Step 2:
Find the area of the pool.
Square 25m = 625 sqm.
Step 3:
Subtract the area of the pool from the gross area of the garden
to find the net area of the garden.
22,500 - 625 = 21,875 sqm.
Warning:
Do not subtract the side length of the swimming pool from the side length
of the garden before squaring.
