Answer 2

Answer:

Let's take Sonu's present age to be 'x'

=>Sonu's age 5 years ago was 'x - 5'

Now,

Nuri's age five years ago was three times Sonu's age

Let us take this age of Nuri 5 years ago to be 'y'

=> y = 3(x - 5)

Therefore,

The linear equation in two variables so formed is ' y = 3 (x - 5) '
