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 :-

8x+10=3(x+10)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 8x+10=3x+30\\\\\Rightarrow8x-3x=30-10\\\\\Rightarrow5x=20\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=4

Hence, The present age of Kelsi = 4 years.

The present age of Sue = 8(4)=32 years.

nevsk [136]

This isn't really mathematics but I can give you an answer.

Assuming, it's in the dark (cuz in the light, why would you use flash), a person in the photograph can gain a red-eye (in the photo).

The only one I can think of is red eye.
