Step-by-step explanation:
7. Let the age of father =x years
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y years
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition⇒x=3y.....eq1
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition⇒x=3y.....eq1After 5 years
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition⇒x=3y.....eq1After 5 years⇒ Father's age =x+5
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition⇒x=3y.....eq1After 5 years⇒ Father's age =x+5⇒ The sum of ages of his two children =y+10
Let the age of father =x yearsThe sum of the age of 2 children =y yearsAccording to the first condition⇒x=3y.....eq1After 5 years⇒ Father's age =x+5⇒ The sum of ages of his two children =y+10According to the second conditiona
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2Put the value of x from eq1
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2Put the value of x from eq1⇒3y−2y=15⇒y=15
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2Put the value of x from eq1⇒3y−2y=15⇒y=15Put y=15 in eq1
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2Put the value of x from eq1⇒3y−2y=15⇒y=15Put y=15 in eq1⇒x=3×15⇒x=45
⇒x+5=2(y+10)⇒x+5=2y+20⇒x−2y=15....eq2Put the value of x from eq1⇒3y−2y=15⇒y=15Put y=15 in eq1⇒x=3×15⇒x=45Hence, father age =45 years
