Answer:
y - 5 = (x - 5)² -------------1
y + 10 = 2(x+10)----------2
Equation 1
y - 5 =x² - 10 x + 25
y = x² - 10x + 30
Equation 2
y = 2x +10
Substituting The Value of y in equation 1
2x + 10 = x² - 10x + 30
x² - 10x - 2x + 30 - 10 = 0
x² - 12x + 20 = 0
x² - 2x - 10x + 20 = 0
x(x - 2) -10(x - 2) = 0
(x - 10)(x - 2) = 0
x = 10 or x = 2[ x cant be 2 as five years ago it would be negative age]
Therefore, sons present age = 10
So sons age five years ago = 5 yrs
Substituting The Value of x in equation 2
y = 2x + 10
y = 2 * 10 + 10
y = 20 + 10
y = 30 yrs
Therefore, Women Present Age = 30 yrs
