Question 453167
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let *[tex \Large x] represent the number of years between now and the time that you are three times her age.  Then *[tex \Large 57\ +\ x] is your age at that time and *[tex \Large 4\ +\ x] is her age at that time and we want to know the value of *[tex \Large x] when your age is 3 times hers:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3(4\ +\ x)\ =\ 57\ +\ x]


Just solve for *[tex \Large x].

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
