Answer:

Mrs. B's age = y = 38 years

her son's age = x = 8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To Find:

Mrs. B's age = y =?

her son's age = x = ?

Solution:

Let Mrs. B's age  be 'y' years

and her son's age be 'x' years

Three years ago Mrs B's will be (y - 3) and her son's age will be (x - 3)

According to the first given condition,

y = 6 + 4x ...............Equation ( 1 )

According to the second given condition,

(y - 3 ) = 7 (x - 3 )..........Equation ( 2 )

equating equation 1 in equation 2 we get

6 + 4x -3 = 7x - 21

7x - 4x = 21 + 3

∴ 3x=24\\\therefore x =\frac{24}{3} \\\\\therefore x =8\ years

Now substitute x in equation 1 we get

y = 6 + 4×8

y = 6 + 32

∴ y = 38 years

Mrs. B's age = y = 38 years

her son's age = x = 8 years
