The question is not clear enough
Answer: 46 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the father's age be x and the son's age be y, then 3 years ago:
Father = x - 3
son = y - 3
Then , from the first statement :
x - 3 = 3 ( y - 3 )
x - 3 = 3y - 9
x = 3y - 9 + 3
x = 3y - 6 .......................................... equation 1
In five years time
father = x + 5
son = y + 5
Then , from the second statement
x + 5 = 2 ( y + 5 )
x + 5 = 2y + 10
x = 2y + 10 - 5
x = 2y + 5 ........................ equation 2
Equating equation 1 and 2 , we have
3y -6 = 2y + 5
add 6 to both sides
3y = 2y + 5 + 6
subtract 2y from both sides
3y - 2y = 11
y = 11
substitute y = 11 into equation 1 to find the value of x
x = 3y - 6
x = 3(11) - 6
x = 33 - 6
x = 27
This means that the father is presently 27 years and the son is presently 11 years.
In four years time
father = 27 + 4 = 31
son = 11 + 4 = 15
sum of their ages in four years time will be
31 + 15 = 46 years
Answer: B
I hope this helped you
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
All real numbers means all numbers positive and negative
Therefore, it would have to be C because the others dont have both positives and negatives for their domain and range reaches
Answer:
I am not sure how your teacher wanted you to estimate the answer but I solved it for you. Hopefully this helps.
Step-by-step explanation:
7x-y=7
x+2y=6
14x-2y=14
x+2y=6
add both equations
15x=20
x=20/15
x=4/3
x+2y=6
4/3+2y=6
2y=6-4/3
2y=18/3 -4/3
2y=14/3
divide both sides by 2
y= 14/3 divided by 2
y=14/3(1/2)
y=14/6
2y=
