Let x = Parent's age now y = son's age now
Then, x-5 = parent's age five years ago
y-5 = son's age five years ago
So, x-5 = 5(y-5)
Simplify to get x - 5y = -20
Parent's age 8 years from now = x+8
Son's age 8 years from now = y+8
So, x+8 = 3(y+8)
Simplifying, we have x - 3y = 16
We have the system of equations: x - 5y = -20
x - 3y = 16
Subtract the equations to obtain -2y = -36
y = 18
x = 70
Parent is 70 years old and the son is 18 years old.
Answer:
a is proportional to b
a=kb
k is proportionality constant
k =a/b =3/12 =1/4
k=1/4 = a/b=a/18
1/4=a/18
a=18/4 =9/2 =4.5 answer
The x and y coordinates of point S are increased by three to get to the midpoint.
(2,1) ----> (5,4)
To get to point t increase the coordinates by three again.
(5,4) -----> (8,7)
answer: (8,7)
