Question

the product of the ages of suyash before three years and after 5 years is 153 Find his today's age​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let present age be = x

so, before three year age would be = x-3

and after 5 year age would be = x+5

according to question

(x-3) × (x+5) = 153

x² + 5x - 3x -15 = 153

x² +2x -168 = 0

x² -14x + 12x - 168 = 0

x ( x-14) + 12 ( x-14) = 0

(x+12) (x-14) = 0

 x+12 = 0 , x would be -12

x+14= 0 , x would be 14

present age is 14 ,  age never be negative,
