Three years back, a father was 24 years older than his son. At present the father is 5 times as old as the son. Write an equation to represent this situation.

  5s -3 = s -3 + 24    5s -3 = s + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Father   f

Son   s .   present:  f = 5s  use this equation to substitute the equal value

3 years ago .  f-3 = s-3 + 24  

Substitute 5s for f in the second equation

5s -3 = s-3 + 24

works out as  5s -s = - 3  +3 + 24

4s = 24  

4s/4 = 24/4  

s = 6

The son's age is 6, The father is 30

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation: the answer is 27. first multiply .32 by 25 which equals 8. then add 8 to 25 which gives you 33. then you subtract that from 6 since she gave 6 to her brother.
