The ages of George and Genemy are in ratio 5:7 . Four years from now the ratio of their ages will be 3:4 .Find their present ages.​

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be George's age and y be Genemy's age.

x/y = 5/7

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

From equation 1, y = 7x/5 = 1.4x so substituting in equation 2 :

(x + 4)/ (1.4x + 4) = 3/4

3(1.4x + 4) = 4(x + 4)

4.2x + 12 = 4x + 16

0.2x = 16 -12 = 4

x = 4/0.2 = 20 = George's age.

So y = 1.4x = 1.4 * 20 = 28 = Genemy's age.

well the 1 and -1 are always after the 0 and the 0 is inthe middle. s thats what i would guess. but i dont know what a slope of 2 is sorry
