Answer:
4 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
let their ages be x and x - 5, then in 4 years their ages will be
x + 4 and x - 5 + 4 = x - 1 , and the product is 104, thus
(x + 4)(x - 1) = 104 ← expand factors on left using FOIL
x² + 3x - 4 = 104 ( subtract 104 from both sides )
x² + 3x - 108 = 0 ← in standard form
(x + 12)(x - 9) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = - 12
x - 9 = 0 ⇒ x = 9
However, x > 0 ⇒ x = 9
Thus
Their present ages are 9 and 9 - 5 = 4

Answer:
The smallest side is 7inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the shorter side be y.
The medium side is 4 more than the short side i.e
Meduim side = 4 + y
The longest side is 5 times the length of the shortest side i.e
Logest side = 5y.
Perimeter of the triangle = 53 inches
But the perimeter of a triangle is the Sum of all sides i.e
P = small + medium + large
53 = y + (4+y) + 5y
53 = y + 4 + y + 5y
Collect like terms
53 — 4 = 7y
49 = 7y
Divide both side by 7
y = 49/7
y = 7inches
Therefore the smallest side is 7inches
