good morning
Step-by-step explanation:
Let beena's present age be x years
Then,Seema's present age will be x + 9 years
Now according to the question:
after 10 years seema will be x + 9 + 10 years old = x + 19 years
and 10 years ago beena was x - 10 years
Therefore x + 19 = 2(x - 10) (Given in the question )
after solving we get :
x = 39 (Beena's present age)
x + 9 = 48 (Seema's present age)

Answer:
seema age=x
beena age=x+9
after 10 years
seema age=x+10
beena age=x+9+10
10=x+10+x+9+10
10=2x+29
29-10=2x
19=2x
x=19÷2
x=8.5
