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.
I don’t know I need points
-3|x-3|=-6
divide both sides by -3
|x-3|=2
assume
x-3=2 and
x-3=-2
x-3=2
add 3
x=5
x-3=-2
add 3
x=1
x=5 or 1

The 3 numbers which should be placed between 12 and 60 are; 24, 36 and 48.
<h3>What three numbers should be placed between 12 and 60?</h3>
It follows from the task content that the first and last numbers are; 12 and 60 respectively.
Hence, since the difference between 12 and 60 is 48 and there are 4 transitions between the two numbers to have 5 total numbers,
It follows that the common difference is; 48/4 = 12 and the three numbers required are; 24,36 and 48.
