The mother's age is 8 times her son's age. After 6 years, the age of the mother will be 9/2 times her son's age. The present age

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

son = 6 mother = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Mother = m

son = s

m = 8s

m+6 = 9/2 * (s+6)

2(8s + 6) = 9(s +6)

16s + 12 = 9s + 54

16s - 9s = 54 - 12

7s = 42

s = 42/7 = 6 years old

so the mother is 8s = 8*6= 48 years old

2 x - 5 + 7 y - 3 = 9 x - 1 - y -8 Solve For X AND Y (SHOW WORK PLEASE)

Maru [420]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\sf x = \frac{8y+1}{7} }$

$\large\boxed{\sf x = \frac{7x-1}{8} }$

Group the Variable's:

2 x - 5 + 7 y - 3 = 9 x - 1 - y -8

2x -9x + 7y +y = -1 -8 +5 + 3

-7x + 8y = -1

From this find x and y

For X

-7x + 8y = -1

-7x = -1 -8y

7x = 8y + 1

x = (8y +1)/7

For Y

-7x + 8y = -1

8y = -1 +7x

y = (7x -1)/8
