Question

my mother is 12 years older than twice my age after 8 years my mother's age will be 20 years less than three times my age find my age and my mother's age​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'm' be the age of mother and 'k' be the age of the kid.

Given : m = 2k + 12 -------eq.1

After 8 years ,

m' = m + 8 , k' = k +8

m' = 3k' - 20 = 3(k + 8) - 20 = 3k + 4 = m + 8

m = 3k - 4 ------------eq.2

put eq.2 in eq.1

3k - 4 = 2k + 12

k = 16

m = 44
