Two ways:
1) guess factors(trial and error)
2) use quadratic formula.
If you use this method then a = -3, b = -6 and c = -1
x = -b +/- [sqrt(b^2 -4ac)/2a]
substituting a, b, and c into our equation we get:
x = - (-6)+/- [sqrt ((-6)^2) - 4(-3)(-1))/2 (-3)]
x = + 6 +/- [sqrt (36 -4 (3)/-6)] if I didnt make a mistake in my signs
x = + 6 +/- [sqrt (36 -12)/-6)]
x = 6 +/- [sqrt (24)/-6] but sqrt 6 x sqrt of 4 = sqrt 24 hence
x = 6 +/- [ sqrt 6 x sqrt 4 /-6] that is:
x = 6 +/- [sqrt 6 x 2 /-6 ]
so x = 6 + [sqrt 6 x 2/-6] and x = 6 - [sqrt 6 x 2/-6]
Let S represent Sunaina's age.
Let T represent Tanish's age.
So 2S - T/2 = 40, 4S - T = 80.
Either S - T = 2 or T - S = 2. Let's try both cases.
Either 3S = 78 or 3S = 82.
Since 82 is not a multiple of 3, S = 26.
So Sunaina is 26 years old and Tanish is 24 years old.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!
3 cm on the map represents 31.5 km in reality.
3cm : 31.5 km
1cm : 31.5/3 km
1cm : 10.5km
So the scale on the map is 1cm represents 10.5 km.
