X² + 3x = 10
Convert to standard form.
x² + 3x - 10 = 0
factor x² = x * x
factor -10 = 5 * -2
(x + 5) (x - 2) = 0
x(x -2) + 5(x-2) = 0
x² - 2x + 5x - 10 = 0
x² + 3x - 10 = 0
x + 5 = 0 x² + 3x = 10
x = -5 -5² + 3(-5) = 10
25 - 15 = 10
10 = 10
x - 2 = 0 x² + 3x = 10
x = 2 2² + 3(2) = 10
4 + 6 = 10
10 = 10
Simon is 13 years old
Let x be Simon's age
Thus 4 years ago his age was (x - 4) and 2 years from now his age is (x + 2)
Hence 5(x - 4) = 3(x + 2)
distributing both sides gives
5x-20 = 3x + 6
subtract 3x from both sides of the equation
5x - 3x - 20 = 6
2x - 20 = 6
add 20 to both sides
2x = 6 + 20 = 26
divide both sides by 2
x = 
= 13

You mean
the linear equations, 5x-y+1=0,4x-y+1=0
the slopes are 5 and 4 respectively.
it is clear that slope of first equation is greater that is it has a steeper graph therefore it Will always be greater than the other for x > 1
the same can be done by calculus; differentiation.
note y=5x+1 is always greater than y=4x+1 for all x>1
