) a) Liaqat gave his uncle a puzzle. "five times my age plus 10 years makes 70 years." How old is Liaquat? b) His uncle replied, "four times my age, less than 10 years ,is 130." How old is Liaqat's uncle?

a. 12 years

b. 30 years

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Assume Liaqat's age is x. His age would be:

5x + 10 = 70

5x = 70- 10

x = (70 - 10) / 5

x = 12

Liaqat is 12 years old.

b. Assume his uncle's age is y;

4y - 10 = 130

4y = 130 - 10

y = (130 - 10) / 4

y = 30

Liaqat's uncle is 30 years old.
