Question 787521
A man is 25 years older than his son.
In 10 years he will be more than twice as old as his son. How old is the son?
----------
Equation:
f = s +25
f+10 > 2(s+10)
------
Substitute for "f" and solve for "s":
s+25 + 10 > 2s+20
s+35 > 2s+20
-----
s < 15 (The son is less than 15 yrs old)
