Luis uncle is 3 years younger than his dad. Analyze the two equations bellow that represents the ages of the person describe. X+20=y Y-20-3=z what do each variable represents

Answer 1

Answer: X= John's age , Y= Fernando's age, Z = Age of Luis uncle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: John is 20 years younger than fernando.

i.e. John' age + 20 = Fernando's age

So in the given equation "X+20=Y " , X= John's age and Y= Fernando's age.

From this , John's age: X= Y-20   (i)

Also, Luis uncle is 3 years younger than his dad( John).

Age of Luis uncle = John's age -3

=X-3

= Y-20-3         [From i]

So in the given equation Y-20-3=Z , Z = Age of Luis uncle
