Question

Salma is 12 years more than twice Salman's age. After 8 years, Salma's age will be 20 years less than three times Salman's age. Find their ages !

Answer 1

Answer:

!!

Step-by-step explanation:

let the Salman's age be x

then,Salma age will become 2x + 12

after 8 years,

Salman's age = x + 8

Salma = 2x + 12 + 8

A/q

3 ( x + 8 ) - 20 = 2x + 12 + 8

3x + 24 - 20 = 2x + 20

3x + 4 = 2x +20

3x - 2x = 20 - 4

x = 16

hence Salman's age=16years

And Salma age = 44year

_____Heyy Buddy ❤_______

____Here's your Answer _______

Let Salman's age be x yrs.

=> Mother's Age = 2x + 12 yrs.

AFTER 8 YRS,

Salma's age = x + 8 yrs.

Mother's age = 2x + 20 yrs.

A.T.Q.

=> 3(x+8) - 20=2x + 12+8

=> 3x+24-20 = 2x+20

=> 3x+4=2x+20

=> 3x-2x=20-4

=> x=16

Therefore,

Age of Salma is 16 yrs.

Mother's age = 2x + 12 = 32 + 12

=> 44 yrs.
