Seven years ago Stephen's age was five times the square of Riya's age'3 years hence Riya's age will be 2 fifth of Stephen's age. find their present ages.
plzz help guys its urgent..
Answers
age be X years
Stephen's age =5x2 years
Riay present age =x+7 years
Varun’s present age=5x2+7 years
It is given that three years hence riay's age will be 2/5 of stephen’s age
x+10=2/5(5x2=10)
=x+10=2x2+4
=2x2-x-6=0
=2x(x-2)+3(x-2)=0
=(2x+3)(x-2)=0
=x-2=0
=x=2
Hence Riya's present age = (2 + 7) years = 9 years
Stephen's’s present age= (5*x2+7)years = 27 yand ears
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let seven years, age of Swati was x years and age of Varun was 5x² years
Present age of Swati = ( x + 7 ) years
Present age of Varun = ( 5x² + 7 ) years
Given, after 3 years swati's age will be 2 / 5 of Varun's age.
Age of Swati after 3 years = ( x + 7 + 3 ) years = ( x + 10 ) years
Age of Varun after 3 years = ( 5x² + 7 + 3 ) years = ( 5x² + 10 ) years
Given, age of Swati after 3 years = age of varun after 3 years
( x + 10 ) = 2 / 5 × ( 5x² + 10 )
( x + 10 ) = 2( x² + 2 )
x + 10 = 2x² + 4
2x² - x + 4 - 10 = 0
2x² - x - 6 = 0
2x² - 4x + 3x - 6 = 0
2x( x - 2 ) + 3( x - 2 ) = 0
x = 2 [ Age can't be negative ]
Therefore,
present age of Swati = ( 2 + 7 ) = 9 years
present age of Varun = 5(2)²+7=27 years
