Answer: The present age of Kelsi = 4 years.
The present age of Sue=32 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the present age of Kelsi.
Then, Sue's present age = 8x
According to the question, after 10 years Kelsi's's age = x+10
Now, the Sue's age after 10 years will be given by :-
[tex]8x+10=3(x+10)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8x+10=3x+30\\\\\Rightarrow8x-3x=30-10\\\\\Rightarrow5x=20\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=4[/tex]
Hence, The present age of Kelsi = 4 years.
The present age of Sue = 8(4)=32 years.
