13.) Seven years ago Rohit's age was 5 times the square os Shikhar's age. Three years hence(12)Shikhar's age will beof Rohit's age. Find their present age

Answer»

Let present age of Rohit be xLet present age of Shikhar be y

As per given conditions(x-7) = 5(y - 7)^2...... (1)

(y + 3) = 2/5(x + 3)5y + 15 = 2x + 6y = (2x - 9)/5......(2)

Put value of y in eq(1), we get(x - 7) = (2x - 9 - 35)^2 /55x - 35 = 4x^2 + 1936 - 176x4x^2 - 181x + 1971 = 04x^2 - 108x - 73x + 1971 = 04x(x - 27) - 73(x - 27) = 0x = 73/4, 27

Age must be integer value. So, x = 27

y = (2*27 - 9)/5 = 45/5 = 15

Therefore, Present age of Rohit = 27Present age of Shikhar = 15
