Answer:
Age= 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a be for age at the moment
(a-3)^2 =6(a+9)
a^2-6a+9=6a+54
a^2-12a-45
(a-15)(a+3)
a=15 or a=-3
Age cannot be negative (-)
Therefore
Age =15
8.7/2=q/4
multiply both sides by 4: q=8.7/2*4
multiply both sides by 2: 2q=8.7 times 4
refine the equation: 2q=34.8
multiply both sides by 10: 20q=348
Divide both sides by 20: 20q/20=348/20
refine the equation for the final answer: q=87/5
