Solution will be 1/15625

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the value of first term for ar^(4-1) for the third term with 1/25 on RHS, make r the subject (which is the common ratio)

you'll get r as 1/5

Now for the eighth term, replace the "4" in the formula with "8" and a with "5" and observe the magic.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

s=6 years

m=48 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Mother's age=m

Son's age=s

m=8*s

m=8s (1)

m+6=9/2(s+6)

m+6=9/2s+27 (2)

Substitute (1) into (2)

m+6=9/2(s)+27

8s+6=9/2s+27

8s+6-9/2s-27=0

8s-9/2s-21=0

(16-9/2)s-21=0

7/2s=21

s=21÷7/2

=21×2/7

=42/7

s=6

Present age of the son=6

m=8s

=8(6)

m=48

Present age of the mother=48
