Question

1. Aftab tells his daughter, “Seven years ago, I was seven times as old as you were. Also, three years from now, I shall be three times as old as you will be.” Represent this situation algebraically.​

Answer 1

x - 7 = 7(y - 7)

x + 3 = 3(x + 3)

Explanation:

Aftab's age = x

daughter's age = y

According to question,

x - 7 = 7(y - 7)

and,

x + 3 = 3(x + 3)
