Answer:
let the age of Rajesh=x
let the age of his son=y
x-7=7(y-7)
x-7=7y-49
x-7y=-49+7
x-7y=-42------1
x+3=3(y+3)
x+3=3y+9
x-3y=9-3
x-3y=6---------2
By elimination method
x-7y=-42
x-3y=6
(-)(+)(-)
-4y=-48
y=-48/-4
y=12
Now substituting the value of eq. 2
x-3y=6(in place of y we have to write 12)
x-3(12)=6
x-36=6
x=6+36
x=42
the present age of Rajesh = 42 yrs.
the present age of his son =12yrs.
