Question 30059
Let the man's age be x
Let his brother's age be y
x+y=92
y=92-x (subsitution)



26 years ago man's age = x-26
26 years ago his bro's age = y-26

Equation:
<pre><b>9(y-26)=x-26
9y-234=x-26
Subsitute:
9(92-x)-234=x-26
828-9x-234=x-26
-9x+594=x-26
-10x=-620
x=62


*[tex y=92-62]
*[tex y=30]


<font color = red>Hence, the man's age is 62 and his brother's age is 30.</font>
