Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let present age of man=x
Let present age of daughter=y
Seven years ago:
Age of man=x-7
Age of daughter=y-7
Acc. to question:
x-7=7(y-7)
x-7=7y-49............(1)
Three years from now:
Age of man=x+3
Age of daughter=y+3
Acc. to question:
x+3=3(y+3)
x+3=3y+9...............(2)
Subtracting (2) from (1)
We get,
y=12
Substituting value of y in (2)
We get,
x=42
So, present age of man= 42years
And present age of daughter= 12years
