Answer:
The birth year of Sumi is 20452045
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x------> the age of Sudha in 2055
y-----> the age of Sumi in 2055
we know that
x=2.5yx=2.5y -----> equation A
(x+15)=2(y+15)-10(x+15)=2(y+15)−10 -----> equation B
Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y
(2.5y+15)=2(y+15)-10(2.5y+15)=2(y+15)−10
(2.5y+15)=2y+30-10(2.5y+15)=2y+30−10
2.5y-2y=30-10-152.5y−2y=30−10−15
0.5y=50.5y=5
y=10y=10
Find the value of x
x=2.5(10)=25x=2.5(10)=25
The birth year of Sumi is
2055-10=20452055−10=2045
