Question

Answer 1

multiply them both and you will get the answer so please mark it as brainest

Answer 2

Father age → 37 years

Son Age → 5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

F + S = 42

F * S = 185

(42-S) * S = 185

42S - S² = 185

S² - 42S + 185 = 0

S² - 37S - 5S + 185 = 0

(S - 37) (S - 5) = 0

S = 37 or 5
