Aaron is 5 years younger than Ron. Four years later, Ron will be twice as old as Aaron. Find their present ages.

Aaron’s present age = x - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ron’s present age be x.  

Then Aaron’s present age = x - 5

After 4 years Ron’s age = x + 4, Aaron’s age x - 5 + 4.  

According to the question;  

Ron will be twice as old as Aaron.  

Therefore, x + 4 = 2(x - 5 + 4)  

⇒ x + 4 = 2(x - 1)  

⇒ x + 4 = 2x - 2

⇒ x + 4 = 2x - 2

⇒ x - 2x = -2 - 4

⇒ -x = -6

⇒ x = 6

Therefore, Aaron’s present age = x - 5 = 6 - 5 = 1

Hope this answer helps you :)

Have a great day

soo this can be solve by using the formula:

f = p( 1 + i)^ n

where f is the future profit

p is the initial profit

i is the percent increase

n is the number of years

a . f = 30000 ( 1.05)^n

b. f = 30000 ( 1.05)^15

f = $62,368

step-by-step explanation:

gym b charges $1.05 less per hour than gym a.
