Question

After 5 years, the age of father will be two times the age of son. Write a

linear equation in two variables to represent this statement. From this find

the age of son if the age of father is 35 years.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let at present age of the father =x

Age of son =y

After 5 years , the age of the father will be two times the age of his son.

∴ Required linear equation to represent the above statement is x=2y+5

given age of father =35

so age of son is 35=2y+5

=> y=10

so age of son when father's age is 35 is 10

Answer 2

Answer:

$y = 10 \y \e \a \r \s$
