A wise man once said 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 232. what is his age

1 answer:

3 0

Well 500 reduced by 4 times my age is 232...
The first step to discover the age (I'll assume that's your question) is subtract 232 from 500 500-232 equals 268. Divide this by 4 to get 67. Boy, that's a pretty old age. Hope this helps!

$(3-4i)(a+bi)=25\qquad\text{use FOIL method}\\\\(3)(a)+(3bi)+(-4i)(a)+(-4i)(bi)=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai-4bi^2=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai-4b(-1)=25+0i\\\\3a+3bi-4ai+4b=25+0i\\\\(3a+4b)+(3b-4a)i=25+0i\\.\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\Downarrow\\\\3a+4b=25\ and\ 3b-4a=0\\\\3b-4a=0\qquad\text{add 4a to both sides}\\\\3b=4a\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\b=\dfrac{4}{3}a\qquad\text{substitute it to the first equation}\\\\3a+4\left(\dfrac{4}{3}a\right)=25\\\\3a+\dfrac{16}{3}a=25\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}$

$9a+16a=75\\\\25a=75\qquad\text{divide both sides by 25}\\\\\boxed{a=3}\qquad\text{put the value of a to}\ b=\dfrac{4}{3}a:\\\\b=\dfrac{4}{3}(3)\\\\\boxed{b=4}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{(3-4i)\underline{(3+4i)}=25}$
