Two years ago a father was four times as old as his son three years from now he will be only three times as old as his son how old is each now?

(f-2) = 4(s-2)--------------1 f+3 = 3(s+3)--------------2

x father's age now y son's age now \[\begin{cases}(x-2)=4(y-2)\\(x+3)=3(y+3)\end{cases}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1) f = 4s-8+2 = 4s-6 2) f = 3s+9 - 3 = 3s + 6 so, 3s+6 = 4s - 6 s=12 f = 42
