Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Son's age =x and Man's age =4x

After 16 years,

2(x+16)=4x+16

2x+32=4x+16

16=2x

x=8 years

∴ Son's age =8 years and Man's age =32 years.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

son=x

A=4x

after 16 years

x=x+16

A=4x+16

2(x+16)=4x+16

4x-2x=32-16

2x=16

x=8

A=32
