Aftab tells his daughter ,"seven years ago, I was seven times as old as you were then. also, three years from now, I shall be three times as old as you will be." represent this situation algebraically and graphically
Answers
Answer:
Let the present age of Aftab be x.
And, present age of his daughter = y
Seven years ago,
Age of Aftab = x - 7
Age of his daughter = y - 7
According to the question,
(x -7) = 7(y-7)
x- 7y = -42 -------------------(1)
Three years hence,
Age of Aftab = x + 3
Age of his daughter = y + 3
x+3 = 3y + 9
x - 3y = 6 ------------------------------(2)
Subtract (2) from (1):-----=>.
-4y = - 48
=> y = 12 yrs
Now, put the value of y in equation (2):-
x= 6+ 36
x = 42 yrs
Hence, present age of aftab= 42 yrs
and present age of his daughter= 12 yrs
