Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Leena = 7x years
Let the age of Heena= 5x years
Hence,
The required linear equation:-
7x+10/5x+10=9/7
=>9(5x+10)=7(7x+10)
=>45x+90=49x+70
=>90-70=49x-45x
=>20=4x
=>5 =x
Age of Leena = 7x =35 years
Age of Heena = 5x = 25 years

SOLUTION :
⇒ LET THE AGE OF LEENA BE 7x
⇒AND THE AGE OF HEENA BE 5y
⇒Ten year hence
I.e. 7x+10 and 5x+10
7x+10/5x+10=9/7
By cross multiplication, we get
49x+70=45x+90
4x=20
x=5
⇒Therefore ages are
7×5=35 and 5×5=25
ANSWER--- The present age of leena is 35yrs and the present age of Heena is 25yrs
