Answer:

Shalini = 12

Poonam = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p = poonams age

Let s = shalini's age

p = 5s

p+s = 72

Substitute the first equation into the second equation

5s+s = 72

Combine like terms

6s= 72

Divide by 6

6s/6 = 72/6

s = 12

p = 5s =5*12 = 60

Shalini = 12

Poonam = 60

CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THIS ​
Alchen [17]

The line in the middle has a right angle, so the angle just above the Y would be 90 degrees.

The angle to the right of y is given as 48.

The three inside angles of a triangle need to equal 180.

So y  = 180 - 90 - 48 = 42 degrees.
