Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. Vârsta mamei cu doi ani în urmă era de cinci ori mai mare decât vârsta fiicei. .este şase ani, vârsta fiicei va fi de trei ori mai mică decât vârsta mamei.
3. Trebuie să determinăm dacă vârsta mamei poate fi40 de ani în prezent și să determinăm vârsta actuală a fiicei.

STEP 2

Let's denote the mother's age two years ago as MM and the daughter's age two years ago as .Fromthefirstcondition,wehave. From the first condition, we haveM =5$$

STEP 3

In six years, the mother's age will be M+8M +8 and the daughter's age will be +8 +8. From the second condition, we have+8=13(M+8) +8 = \frac{1}{3}(M +8)

STEP 4

We have a system of two equations with two variables MM and $$\begin{cases} M = \\ +8 = \frac{1}{3}(M +8) \end{cases}

STEP 5

We can solve this system of equations by substitution. Substitute M=5M =5 into the second equation+8=13(5+8) +8 = \frac{1}{3}(5 +8)

STEP 6

implify the equation3+24=5+83 +24 =5 +8

STEP 7

Rearrange the equation to solve for 2 =16$$

STEP 8

olve for =8$$

STEP 9

Substitute =8 =8 into the first equation to find MMM=5×8M =5 \times8

STEP 10

Calculate MMM=40M =40

STEP 11

The mother's age two years ago was40, so her current age is42. Therefore, the mother's current age cannot be40.

STEP 12

The daughter's age two years ago was8, so her current age is10.
The mother's current age cannot be40, and the daughter's current age is10.
