Answer:
12 years and 16 years
Step-by-step explanation:
their ages are in the ratio 3 : 4
let Anjali = 3x and Aditya = 4x ← present ages
In 8 years then
Anjali = 3x + 8 and Aditya = 4x + 8, hence
3x + 8 + 4x + 8 = 44 ← sum of their ages in 8 years
7x + 16 = 44 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 4
Anjali is 3x = 3 × 4 = 12 years old and Aditya = 4x = 4 × 4 = 16 years old
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 6 = ?
[Replace x with 7]
7 + 6 = 13
13x - y = 3 .....(1)
x - 6y = -33 ......(2)
eqn (2) × 13
13x - 78y = -429 .....(3)
(3) - (1)
13x - 78y = -429
13x - y = 3
(-). (+). (-)

- 77y = 431
_________________
-77y = 431
y = 431 ÷ -77
y = -5.5
