Step-by-step explanation:
x = father's age now
y = son's age now
x = 2y + 10
x - 20 = 5(y - 20) = 5y - 100
using the first in the second equation :
2y + 10 - 20 = 5y - 100
-10 = 3y - 100
90 = 3y
y = 30
x = 2y + 10 = 2×30 + 10 = 60 + 10 = 70
the father is now 70 years old, the son now 30 years old.
Answer:
3x=x+30
2x=30
x=15
3(15)=45
15+30=45
45 for both
hope that answers your question
