3y – 6x = 3 y = 2x + 1
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

infinite solutions along the line y = 2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

3y – 6x = 3

y = 2x + 1

Replace y in the first equation with the second equation

3 ( 2x+1) -6x =3

6x +3 -6x = 3

3=3

This is always true so there are infinite solutions along the line y = 2x+1

One year ago, a man was 8 times as old as his son. Now his age is equal to the square of his sons age. The present age of son is
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

The present age of son is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the son age be x

One year ago

Son's age = x - 1

Therefore man's age = 8(x-1) =8x - 8

Now man's age = x^2

Difference between both ages if man =1 years

So

x^2 -(8x-8) = 1

x^2-8x + 8-1 =0

x^2- 8x + 7 = 0

x^2 - 7x -x + 7 = 0

X(x-7) - 7 ( x - 7) = 0

(x - 1) ( x - 7) = 0

x = 1, 7

But son cannot be 1 years

Therefore ,

x = 7

SO,

age of son is <em>7</em>

age of father is x×7=<em>49</em>
