Important Questions from Simple Linear Equations

1multiple choice
3 marks

A father is 3 times as old as his son. After 10 years, the father will be twice the son's age. What is the son's present age?

Show answer

10 years

Let the son's present age be x years. Then the father's present age is 3x years. After 10 years, their ages will be x + 10 and 3x + 10. The condition gives 3x + 10 = 2(x + 10). Simplify: 3x + 10 = 2x + 20, so x = 10.

A number is multiplied by 9 and then 11 is added to the product. The final result is 56. What is the number?

Show answer

5

Let the number be x. The equation is 9x + 11 = 56. Subtract 11 from both sides: 9x = 45. Divide by 9: x = 5.

3multiple choice

A number is as much greater than 35 as it is less than 53. What is the number?

Show answer

44

Let the number be x. The condition means x - 35 = 53 - x. Add x to both sides and add 35 to both sides: 2x = 88. Divide by 2: x = 44.

4multiple choice

The sum of two numbers is 18. If one number is twice the other, what are the two numbers?

Show answer

12 and 6

Let the smaller number be x. Then the other number is 2x. Their sum is x + 2x = 18, so 3x = 18. Divide by 3: x = 6. The numbers are 6 and 12.
