The answer will be 40. As it doubles twice during 220mins- 10 to 20 and then 20 to 40.
Answer:
30 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Forming Algebraic expressions and solving them to find the age.
Ratio of age of mother and daughter = 5 : 3
Age of mother = 5x
Age of daughter = 3x
It is given that mother's age is 50 years.
⇒ 5x = 50
Divide both sides by 5.
x = 50÷5
x = 10
Daughter's age = 3x
= 3*10
= 30 years
Hi there!
To solve this problem, we need to set up two equations and use the system of equations to solve.
Let x be the first number.
Let y be the second number.
(x + y) ÷ 2 = 34
x = 3y
Now, we can use substitution to solve.
(3y + y) ÷ 2 = 34
4y ÷ 2 = 34
2y = 34
y = 17
Now, we plug the value of y in the equation to solve for x.
x = 3*17
x = 51
Hope this helps!
