y=x+6_________(1)
y_10/x_10=5/4
4y-40=5x_50
4(x+6)-40=5x_50
4x+24_40=5x_50
4x-16=5x_50

Answer:
Present age of husband is 40 yrs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let present age of wife= x yrs.
∴ Present age of husband = x+6
10 yrs ago,
Age of wife = x-10
Age of husband= (x+6)-10
= x-4 yrs.
Ratio of husband's age to wife's age=5:4
(x- 4) : (x-10 ) =5:4
(x- 4) /(x-10 ) =5/4
By doing cross multiplication ,
4(x- 4) = 5 (x-10)
4x- 16 = 5x -50
5x-4x =50 -16
x= 34
Present age of wife = 34 yrs.
Present age of husband= 34+6=40 yrs.
