let john's age = x
and jude age = y
as per 1st given condition;
x = 6y + 5....................(1)
as per 2nd given condition;
x + y = 33
put the values of "x" from (1) and we get;
6y + 5 + y = 33
7y + 5 = 33
subtract 5 from both sides and we get;
7y = 28
divide both sides by 4 and we get;
y = 4
put the value of y into (1) and we get;
x = 6 * 4 + 5 = 24 + 5 = 29
so john's age = x = 29
and jude age = y = 4
Hope this will help you |
