Let present age of women be x.

Then,Present age of her daughter be y.

According to the question,

<u>Two years ago,</u>

Woman age = x - 2

Her daughter age = y - 2

Woman was 7 times old as her daughter. [ Given ]

x - 2 = 7 ( y - 2 )

=> x - 2 = 7y - 14

=> x - 2 + 14 = 7y

=> x + 12 = 7y ....( i )

<u>A</u><u>f</u><u>t</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u> </u><u>Three years </u>,

Woman age = x + 3

Her daughter age = y + 3

she would be 4 times old as the girl. [ Given ]

x + 3 = 4 ( y + 3 )

=> x + 3 = 4y + 12

=> x = 4y + 12 - 3

=> x = 4y + 9....( ii (

Now,

★ Putting the value of x = 4y + 9 from equation ( ii ) in equation ( i ),we get

x + 12 = 7y

=> 4y + 9 + 12 = 7y

=> 21 = 7y - 4y

=> 21 = 3y

=> 3y = 21

=> y = 21/3

=> y = 7

And,

x = 4y + 9

★ Putting the value of y in equation ( ii ), we get

x = 4 × 7 + 9

x = 28 + 9

x = 37

Hence, the present age of women is 37 years and her daughter age is 7.

Answer:

Shifted by 6 units left on the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is,

f(x) = 5ˣ + 1

After transformation, this function becomes g(x) = 5^{(x+6)}+1

Here, g(x) = f(x + 6)

By the rule of transformation,

Function 'f' has been shifted by 6 units left on the x-axis to form a new function 'g'.
