Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let
f = Father's age
s = Son's age
We'll solve this question, while reading through the instructions
From the first statement;
f is 2 less than 7 times s.
This means

In two years time, the father will be f +2 and the son will be s + 2
So, their sum is:


Collect like terns


So, the equations are:

Answer:
Number 3 is the correct awnser
Your numbers are confusing
Answer: 0.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Set the first number as x.
Note that three consecutive integers are 3 numbers that are 1 greater than the previous.
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 72
Simplify. Combine like terms
3x + 3 = 72
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, subtract 3 from both sides
3x + 3 (-3) = 72 (-3)
3x = 69
Next, divide 3 from both sides
3x/3 = 69/3
x = 23
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
23 is your first answer
Plug in 23 for each x.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(x) + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 72
(x) = 23
(x + 1) = 23 + 1 = 24
(x + 2) = 23 + 2 = 25
23, 24, 25 are your answers
