Answer:

now:

Son is 20 years old

Father is 80 years old

10 years later:

Son will be 20+10= 30 years old

Father will be 80+10=90

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Let

Son’s age = x years

Father’s age = y years

At Present:

Age relation between Father and Son:

y = 4x … 1

After 10 year:

Father’s age = y+10

Son’s age = x+10

New Age relationship between Father and Son:

y + 10 = 3(x + 10) … 2

Solving eq 2 by putting the value of y from eq 1.

4x + 10 = 3(x + 10)

4x + 10 = 3x + 30

4x - 3x = 30 - 10

x = 20

Put the value of x=20 in eq 1

y = 4×20 = 80

At present:

Son is 20 years old

Father is 80 years old

Age relationship: 20:80 => 1:4

After 10 years:

Son will be 20+10= 30 years old

Father will be 80+10=90

Age relationship: 30:90 => 1:3

You and your friend rent a canoe. The canoe costs 10 dollars per half hour plus 5 dollars per day for each life vest. Life vests
REY [17]
The greatest range....the range is ur y value, it will be the total cost...the x is gonna be the number of 1/2 hrs. And the 5 per life vest has to be multiplied by 2 because there is 2 people, making it 10
y = 10x + 10

the greatest range will be when u rent the canoe for the longest.
8 a.m to 6 p.m......thats 10 hrs....20 half hrs...so the greatest range is when u rent the canoe for 20 half hrs.

y = 10(20) + 10
y = 200 + 10
y = 210 <=== the greatest range
