Question

Vickey is 3 times as old as Rickey. What will be the sum of ages 5 years from now if Rickey's age is r years?

a) 10r+4 years

b) 4r+10 years

c) 14r years

d) 10r years

Answer 1

Answer:

• Sum of their ages after 5 years = 4r + 10 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

• Rickey's age is r years.
• Vickey is 3 times as old as Rickey.

⇒ Vickey's age = 3r years

To Find:

• Sum of their ages after 5 years.

After 5 years:

• Rickey's age = (r + 5) years
• Vickey's age = (3r + 5) years

Finding the Sum of their ages after 5 years:

= Ricky's age + Vickey's age

= (r + 5) + (3r + 5) years

= r + 5 + 3r + 5 years

= 4r + 10 years

~ According to the question as we already know that what is given or what to determine. Let's see what to do..!

◕ Vickey is 3 times as old as Rickey. (Given)

◕ Rickey age is r year's (Given)

Henceforth,

◕ 3r years is the age of Vickey. (Finded)

◕ Sum of their age after 5 year's (To determine)

After 5 year's

•↝ Age of Rickey = (r+5) years

•↝ Age of Vickey = (3r+5) years

Sum of their age after 5 years

•↝ Age of Rickey + Age of Vickey

•↝ (r+5) + (3r+5)

•↝ r+5 + 3r+5

•↝ r+3r+5+5

•↝ 4r + 10 years
