Form a pair of linear equations taking your age and your mother’s age and solve the equations by the method. (make equation little difficult and then solve it).

Expert Answer:
We take a sample age problem to extend your understanding of application of linear equation.
10 years ago, mother`s age was 12 times that of her daughter and 10 years hence, her age would be twice that of her daughter. Find their present ages.
Let the present age mother be x years and daughter's present age be y years.
