Answer:
son = 10 , father = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Five years ago the age of son be x years and age of father be 7x years
Present age of son =x+5
Present age of father =7x+5
5 years later their age will (x+10) and (7x+10)
∴7x+10=3(x+10)
7x−3x=20
4x=20
x=5
So, the present age of son=x+5=5+5=10years
and the present age of father=7x+5=35+5=40years
hope it helps you

The answer is in the attachment!
Step-by-step explanation:
Switch 2 units to 5 units.
Explanation:
If Figure G was a reflection over the x-axis (which it is), then the bottom right angle would be at 4 on the y axis. In order for it to get to -1, you would need to move Figure G down 5 units. I hope this helps!
Call the notebooks x, and the pencils y.
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 and 5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>Then just solve as simultaneous equations: </span>
<span>3x + 4y = $8.50 </span>
<span>5x + 8y = $14.50 </span>
<span>5(3x + 4y = 8.5) </span>
<span>3(5x + 8y = 14.5) </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>Think: DASS (Different Add, Similar Subtract). 15x appears in both equations so subtract one equation from the other. Eassier to subtract (15x + 20y = 42.5) from (15x + 24y = 43.5) </span>
<span>(15x + 24y = 43.5) - (15x + 20y = 42.5) = (4y = 1) which means y = 0.25. </span>
<span>Then substitue into equation : </span>
<span>15x + 20y = 42.5 </span>
<span>15x + 5 + 42.5 </span>
<span>15x = 42.5 - 5 = 37.5 </span>
<span>15x = 37.5 </span>
<span>x = 2.5 </span>
<span>15x + 24y = 43.5 </span>
<span>15(2.5) + 24(0.25) </span>
<span>37.5 + 6 = 43.5 </span>
<span>So x (notebooks) are 2.5 ($2.50) each and y (pencils) are 0.25 ($0.25) each.</span>
