Question

Ten years later a father will be thirty five years less than four times the age of his son then. Form a linear equation in two variables for this statement.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the age of father be x years and age of son be y years.

Now A.T.Q.

x-10=4(y-10)-35

or,x-10=4y-40-35

or,x-4y=-40-35+10

or,x-4y=-65

or,x-4y+65=0
