Answer 1

Answer:

Lata's age is 28 yrs while her daughter's age is 6 yrs

Step-by-step explanation:

let Lata's age be x years and her daughter's age be y years

as given in question,

x+y=34. (eq1)

a/c, equate both and 5 to each

now multiply daughter's age by 3

so u get x-3y=10. (eq2)

on simplifying we get, x=10+3y

substitute the value of x to eq1
