Question

on his next birthday, one-third of shankar age will be 10 . if y represents his age on his next birthday , write an epuation to sole . also find his age now ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

equation is y-30= 0

shankars present age= 29 years

Step-by-step explanation:

y is shankars age after 1 year.

shankars present age= y-1

according to question,

(1/3)y = 10

=y/3=10

y=3x10

y=30

equation is y-30= 0

therefore y=30

shankars present age = y-1

=30 - 1= 29 years

Answer 2

Answer:

Let Shankar's present age be x.

1/3(x+1)=10

=x+1 =10*3

x+1 =30

x =30 - 1

x =29

Thus his present age is 29
