Answer:  The age of new teacher is 51 years.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that there are 8 teachers in the school.  One of the teachers with age 35 is transferred to another school, and when a new teacher came the average age of the toatal 8 teachers is increased by 2 years.

So, let the average of the 8 teachers before transfer be 'p' years, the sum of the ages of the fixed 7 teachers be 'x' years and let the age of the new teacher be 'y' years.

Therefore, we can have

\dfrac{x+35}{8}=p~~~\textup{and}~~~\dfrac{x+y}{8}=p+2\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x+35}{8}=\dfrac{x+y}{8}-2\\\\\\\Rightarrow x+35=x+y-16\\\\\Rightarrow y=51.

Thus, the age of the new teacher is 51 years.
