Answer:

John is currently 6 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 years ago: x years

Current time: x+2

In 6 years: x+8

EQUATION:

3(x)=x+8= 3x=x+8

2x=8

x=4

Therefore, John is 6 years old in current time

The product of two positive integers plus their sum is 95. The integers are relatively prime, and each is less than 20. What is

creativ13 [48]

Let the fist integer be x, the second is x+20
the product of the numbers is:
x(x+20)
the sum of the numbers is:
x+x+20=2x+20
the sum of the above operations will give us:
2x+20+x^2+20x=95
x^2+22x+20=95
this can be written as quadratic to be:
x^2+22x-75=0
solving the above we get:
x=3 and x=-25
but since the integers should be positive, then x=3
the second number is x+20=3+20=23
hence the numbers are:
3 and 23
