Question 930555: Aslam's age is half of his father's age, but 15 years ago his age was just 1/3 of his father's age. Find out his present age Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = aslam age
y = father age
---
y = 2x
y - 15 = 3(x - 15)
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
2x - y = 0
y - 15 = 3x - 45
---
2x - y = 0
3x - y = 30
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
