Answer:
Given : -
The present ages of Ram and Rahman are in the ratio 8 : 9 after 5 years the ratio of their ages will be 9 : 10 .
Required to find : -
Present ages ?
The present ages of Ram and Rahman are in the ratio 8 : 9 after 5 years the ratio of their ages will be 9 : 10 .
We need to find the present ages of Ram & Rahman .
So,
We should need to use concept related linear equations in 1 variable . In order to solve this question .
Let's consider that ;
Present ages of Ram be x
Present ages of Ram be x Present age of Raman be y
According to question ,
It is mentioned that ;
Ths present ages of Ram and Raman are in the ratio of 8 : 9 .
So,
The present age of Ram will be 8x
And present age of Raman will be 9x
After 5 years ,
Age of Ram will be 8x + 5
Age of Raman will be 9x + 5
According to question ,
It is mentioned that ;
After 5 years the ratio of their ages will be 9 : 10 .
This implies ,
8x + 5 : 9x + 5 = 9 : 10
we know that ;
a : b = a/b
8x +5 / 9x + 5 = 9/10
10 ( 8x + 5 ) = 9 ( 9x + 5)
80x + 50 = 81x + 45
80x - 81x = 45 - 50
- 1 x = - 5
Take - ( minus ) common on both sides
- ( x ) = - ( 5 )
- ( minus ) get's cancelled on both sides
x = 5
Value of x = 5
Substitute this value in the present ages of Ram & Raman .
Hence,
Present age of Ram = 8x = 8(5) = 40 years .
Present age of Raman = 9x = 9(5) = 45 years .
What is a linear equation in 1 variable ?
It is an equation which consists of only one variable in it . Here the variable represents one unknown value .
Example :-
2x + 3 = 0 , 3+ 4x = 6 , etc.
What is linear equation in 2 variables ?
It is an equation which consists of 2 variables in it. Here , the 2 variables represent 2 different values .
Example :-
3x + 4y = 0 , 6x - y = 35 etc.
Every algebraic expression can become an equation .
But, every equation can't become a algebraic expression.
Same in the case of polynomials too .
Supposition:-
- let the angle of Ram be 8x
- let the age of Rahman be 9x
According to the question:-
=
=
=
=
=
hence, the value of X is 5
Now,
- present age of Ram = 8x = 8(5) = 40years
- present age of Rahman = 9x = 9(5) = 45years.
Tip:-
- Always remember that, in such type of questions, uh need to assume the value in X and then formulate an equation acc. to the question.
