Q:

The sum of the present ages of two persons A and B is 60. If the age of A is twice that of B, find the sum of their ages 5 years hence.

Given that, A+B = 60  and A = 2B.


Solving, We get A = 40, B = 20.


Five years their ages will be 45 and 25, so the sum of their ages will be 70.

Q:

The mean temperature of Monday to Wednesday was 37C and of Tuesday to Thursday was 34C . If the temperature on Thursday was (4/5) th that of Monday, the temperature on Thursday was?

Answer

\inline \fn_jvn M+T+W =(37\times 3)^{0}=111^{0}C   -----------(1)


\inline \fn_jvn T+W+Th=(34\times 3)^{0}=102^{0}C


\inline \fn_jvn \Rightarrow T+W+\frac{4}{5}M = 102^{0}C                --------------(2)


(1) - (2) gives


\inline \fn_jvn \frac{1}{5} th of temperature on Monday = 


\inline \fn_jvn \Rightarrow Temperature on Monday = \inline \fn_jvn 45^{0}C


\inline \fn_jvn \therefore Temperature on Thursday = \inline \fn_jvn \frac{4}{5}\times 45^{0}=36^{0}
