the sum of ages of Jamal and his father is 40 years.After 4 years,the age of the father will be triple the age of his son.Find the age of Kamal and his father​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The age of Jamal is 8 years.

And the age of his father is 32 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

=> let the age of Jamal be x and his father's age be y

=> so , A.T.Q ,

x+y = 40....i)

Find the value of y from here , that's y = 40-x .....

Now, After 4 years ,

=> 3(x+4) = (y+4)

=> 3x+12 = y+4

=> 3x+8 = y ...ii)

putting the value of y in equation ii)

=> 3x+8 = 40-x

=> 3x+x = 40-8

=> 4x = 32

=> x = 8

now ,

=> y = 40-x

=> y = 40-8

=> 32
