Question

a girl is x years old her father is 5 more than 2 times her age the sum of their ages is 50 years write this in equation

Answer 1

A.T.Q 50 = x+ 5 multiply x + 2

Answer 2

Let girls age is x
Her father age will be 2x+5
Sum of their age is 50
so,
x+2x+5=50
3x=50-5
3x=45
x=45÷3
x=15
We know girls age is 15 so fathers age is 50-15=35.
