Age Problem
. In 10 years , A will be twice as old as B was 10 years ago. If A is now 9 years older than B, the present age of B is:
Read Solution (Total 10)
-
- a+10=2(b-10) another condition a=b+9
>b+9+10=2b-20
>b=39
a will be 48 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(0)
- it is 19
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(8) No(3)
- 10 years after A's age will be (A+10)
10 years ago B's age was (B-10)
i.e. first equation will be --> A+10=2(B-10)
and second equation will be --> A=B+9
substituting second equation in first.
now, B+9+10=2B-20 => B=39
and A=48. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- itz ans is 19.
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(2)
- 39
a + 10=2(b-10)
a-b=9 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- let age of a is x n tht of b is y
hence,
x+10=2(y-10)
x=2y-20-10= 2y-30
now 2nd sttmt is :- x=y+9
2y-30=y+9
y=39 and x=48. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- (a+10)=2(b-20)
a=b+9
solvng thm we get b=59 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- let their present age be x and y
ten year ago= x-10 and y-10
now, x+10=2(y-10)
x=9+y
by getting the values of x and y we get
x=48 nd y= 39 (by solving the given euatios) - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- a=2b
10 years ago,
a-10=2(b-10)
now, a=b+9
b+9-10=2(b-10)
ans is b=19 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- after 10 yrs. A's age will be (x+10) and 10 yrs. before B was (x-10) so the eqn 1become ....(A+10)=2(B-10)
since A is twice of B.
Second equation become A=(9+x) and B =x (since a is 9 years older than b)
so by putting the values of A and B we get A=48 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
