x + 3x = 52 4x = 52 x = 13 Mrs. Computer is 39 and Mousy is 13. To solve this problem I gave each of the people a representative letter. Mrs Computer = C and Mousy = M The first statment "Mrs Computer is 3 times older that her daughter Mousy" translates to this C=M*3 The second statement "the sum of their ages is 52" translates to this M+C=52 Because we know that C=M*3 I can translate "How old is Mousy" to this equation M+3*M=52 which

simplifies to this 4*M=52 then further to this M=52/4

Are computer buses the components of computer?

Computer buses are the wires that send data around a computer. So, they are indeed components of a computer. However, in modern computers, the buses are a part of the motherboard. In older computer times, there were separate backplanes that everything else plugged into. So the name bus came from that period of time, and they were indeed separate components then.
