Answer 1

Answer:

The age of the mother is 34 and the age of the daughter is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the present age of the mother be m and the present age of the daughter be d.

Then,

(m - 10) = 12(d - 10)

m - 10 = 12d - 120

m - 12d + 110 = 0

(m + 10) = 2(d + 10)

m + 10 = 2d + 20

m - 2d - 10 = 0

Solving the equations,

d = 12

m =  34
