A man is five times as old as his son. Four years ago the man was thirteen times as old as his son.
skad [1K]

Answer:

Age of son = 6 years

Age of man = 5×6 = 30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>GIVEN :-</u>

  • A man is 5 times as old as his son. (In Present)
  • 4 years ago , the man was 13 times as old as his son

<u>TO FIND :-</u>

  • The present ages of the man & his son.

<u>SOLUTION :-</u>

Let the present age of son be 'x'.

⇒ Present age of man = 5x

4 years ago ,

Age of son = (Present age of son) - 4 = x - 4

Age of man = (Present age of man) - 4 = 5x - 4

The man was thirteen times as old as his son. So,

=> 5x - 4 = 13(x - 4)

Now , solve the equation.

  • Open the brackets in R.H.S.

=> 5x - 4 = 13x - 52

  • Take 5x to R.H.S. and -52 to L.H.S. Also , take care of their signs because they are getting displaced from L.H.S. to R.H.S. or vice-versa.

=> 13x - 5x = 52 - 4

=> 8x = 48

  • Divide both the sides by 8

=> \frac{8x}{8} = \frac{48}{8}

=> x = 6

<u>CONCLUSION :-</u>

Age of son = 6 years

Age of man = 5×6 = 30 years

In the system of equations, r and s are constants. If the system has infinitely many solutions, what is the value of rs?
exis [7]

Answer:  B) -48

Step-by-step explanation:

If the system of two linear equations a_1x+b_1y=c_1\ \&\ a_2+b_2y=c_2 has infinitely many solutions , then

\dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{c_1}{c_2}=k

For the given system of linear equations : rx-sy=26\\4x+3y=13

We , will have

\dfrac{r}{4}=\dfrac{-s}{3}=\dfrac{26}{13}=2\\\\\Rightarrow\ r= 4\times2=8\ \ \&\ \ s=2\times-3=-6

The value of rs=(8)\times-6=-48

Hence, the value of rs is -48.

Thus , the correct option is B) -48.
