Test: Equations Reducible to Linear Form - Question 3

The sum of ages of A and B is 49 years. A said to B, “I am twice as old as you were when I was as old as you are. Find the present age of B.

Detailed Solution for Test: Equations Reducible to Linear Form - Question 3

Let the ages of A and B be a and b
Going by the statement step by step
 A says  “I am twice as old”=A says that age is twice some number which is a=2( _ )
 "as you were" which talks about past, means B’s age some times ago...which is b-(how many years ago)
So, a=2(b- (how many years ago))
“when I was as old as you are" = when A was B’s age now= When A was b years old. So no. of years from now to back then will be A’s age now minus A’s age then =a-b
a=2(b-(a-b))  
a=4b-2a
a=4b/3    …..1
Also a+b=49
a=49-b      …..2
From 1 and 2
49-b=4b/3
4b/3+b=49
7b/3=49
b=49*3/7=21 years
a=28 years

Test: Equations Reducible to Linear Form - Question 4

The value of x, y in the following pair of Linear equations is:  , 

Test: Equations Reducible to Linear Form - Question 5

The value ofx,y in the following pair of Linear equations is: 

Detailed Solution for Test: Equations Reducible to Linear Form - Question 5
Firstly, let 1/√x= a and 1/√y=b 
=> 2a+3b=2   -(1) 
=> 4a-9b= -1 -(2) 
Now,  adding 3 times if equation (1)  with equation (2) 
=>    6a+9b=6
        4a-9b=-1
=>   10a=5
=> a=1/2
Now, Subsituting the value of a in equation (1) 
2(1/2) +3b=2
1+3b=2
3b=2-1
b=-1/3
Now, as a=1/√x and b=1/√y
 1/√x= 1/2 and 1/√y=1/3
=> √x=2 and √y=3
Squaring both sides
=> x=4 and y=9
