is 3 years older than three times Veena's age. Find the ages of Veena's parents.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let

the present age of veena’s mother = x

the present age of veena =y

veena's mother is four times the age of Veena so

x = 4y …………………………………….. (1)

After five years there ages will be

veena’s mother age will be =x+5

veena age willbe =y+5

so according to question

we have

x+5=y+5 + 21 ………………………………. (2)

since we know x= 4y from (1) equation so put it in (2)

we get

4y+5=y+5+21

3y=26–5

3y=21

y=7 (veena age)

so the mother’s age will be 28 years

so x=28 and y=7 (answers
