Question

sunayan:
fi Bisnwant is 7 years older than
Two years ago, the product of their
18. age.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the present age of rohan be x years.

Then, the present age of his mother =(x+26) years

After 3 years, their age will be (x+3) and (x+26+3) years respectively.

Now, (x+3)(x+26+3)=360

⇒(x+3)(x+29)−360=0

⇒x

+3x+29x+87−360=0

⇒x

+32x−273=0

⇒x

2

+39x−7x−273=0

⇒x(x+39)−7(x+39)=0

⇒(x+39)(x−7)=0

Thus, (x+39)=0 or, (x−7)=0

⇒x=−39 or x=7

Here x=−39 is not possible as age cannot be negative.

Thus, Rohan's present age is 7 years
