2X= 1280
X=640
2. If the father is X years old and the son is 46-X years old.
X+5-(46-X+5)=28
X-46+X=28
2X=74
X=37 years old
Then the son is 46-37=9 years old this year.
Five years later, the father is 37+5=42 years old and the son is 9+5= 14 years old.
3. If X baskets of pears are shipped, there are X+3 baskets of apples.
20(X+X+3)=480
40X+60=480
40X=420
X= 10.5
So pears have 10.5*20=2 10 kg, and apples have 480-2 10=270 kg.
4. If there are X kilograms left, sell X- 1200 kilograms.
X+X- 1200=4500*4
2X= 19200
X=9600
