Answer:

Mom === 10.25

Daughter === 3.25

Explanation:

Let’s the mom age be 7+x and the daughters age be x. Put it in a linear equation 7+x=5(4+x).

open the bracket which will give you 7+x=20+5x.

collect like terms which will give you 5x-x=20–7 and you will get 4x=13 where x is 3.25 the mom is 10.25 and the daughters age is 3.25
