Chole’s age = c
\n" ); document.write( "Husband’s age = h
\n" ); document.write( "Product of their ages = c*h
\n" ); document.write( "Sum of their ages = c+h
\n" ); document.write( "15 times the sum of their ages = 15 (c+h)
\n" ); document.write( "Chole two years older than her husband so if we add 2 years to the husband’s age both will be the same age
\n" ); document.write( "c=h+2 …….(1)
\n" ); document.write( "the product of their ages is thirty more than fifteen times the sum of their ages
\n" ); document.write( "c*h=30+15(c+h)……..(2)
\n" ); document.write( "Put the value of c from (1) to (2)
\n" ); document.write( "(h+2)*h=30+15[(h+2)+h]
\n" ); document.write( "h^2+2h=30+15h+30+15h
\n" ); document.write( "h^2+2h=60+30h
\n" ); document.write( "h^2+2h-60-30h=0
\n" ); document.write( "h^2-28h-60=0
\n" ); document.write( "h^2-30h+2h-60=0
\n" ); document.write( "h(h-30)-2(h-30)=0
\n" ); document.write( "(h+2)(h-30)
\n" ); document.write( "h=-2 h=30
\n" ); document.write( "h=-2 impossible
\n" ); document.write( "so h=30
\n" ); document.write( "Husband is 30 years old
\n" ); document.write( "And
\n" ); document.write( "Chole is 32 \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
