Answer:
Son = 12 years old and Mother = 42 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Define x:
Let x be the age of the son 6 years ago
Mother = x²
Find the current age now:
Son = x + 6
Mother = x² + 6
Find their age 3 years later:
Son = x + 6 + 3 = x + 9
Mother = x² + 6 + 3 = x² + 9
Solve x:
x² + 9 = 3(x + 9)
x² + 9 = 3x + 27
x² - 3x - 18 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 3) = 0
x = 6 or x = -3 (rejected)
Find their current age:
Son = x + 6 = 6 + 6 = 12 years old
Mother = x² + 6 = (6)² + 6 = 42 years old
Answer: Son = 12 years old and Mother = 42 years old
