Let x be the age of the son one year ago, then the age of the man was 8x.
The present age of the son is (x+1) and that of the man is (8x+1). Then,
8x+1=(x+1) ^2
8x+1=x^2+1+2x
x=0,6
As the age cannot be 0, so the value of x is 6.
So, present age of son =(x+1)=7 years
and Present age of man =(8x+1)=48 years
