Answer:

Her son is 10 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let son be x

Ellie is 4x

In 5 years time: Her son = x + 5

Ellie = 4x + 5

Given that she will then be 3 times as old as her son: 4x + 5 = 3(x + 5)

Solve x: 4x + 5 = 3(x + 5) ,4x + 5 = 3x + 15

x = 10

Rewrite the given quadratic equation in standard form: Kx 2 + 2x - 1 = 0  

Discriminant = 4 - 4(K)(-1) = 4 + 4K  

For the equation to have two real solutions, the discriminant has to be positive. Hence we need to solve the inequality 4 + 4K > 0.  

The solution set to the above inequality is given by: K > -1 for which the given equation has two real solutions.

2x=180°-40°=140°
x=140°/2
x=70°
Now if we find the I hope this helped :)
