Hey Mate...
Step-by-step explanation:
Son = 12 years old and Mother = 42 years old
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
Thank You..

Let the sons present age be x
then
Age of son 16 year before = x-6
Age of mother 6 year before=(x-6)^
After 3 years
son age will be = x+3
And
Mother age will be = 3 (x+3)---1
Now
Mother age will also =(x-6)^+9 ( with the respect of past)
then
(x-6)^+9= 3 (x+3)
x^-12x+36+9=3x + 9
x^-12x -3x +36=0
x^-15x+36=0
x^-12x -3x +36=0
x (x-12)-3 (x-12)=0
(x-3)(x-12)=0
x=12. (3 is neglected)
Son age=12
and
mother age= 3 ( x+3)
=3 (12+3)
=3×15
