Answer:

Sam is 10 years old.

Explanation:

Lets just say this was asked in 2020 meaning 5 years ago was 2015.

If Pete was 15 in 2015 and his age was 3x the age of Sam, Sam would be 5.

15/3= 5

Now that 5 years has passed since 2015 Sam is 10 and Pete is 20.

(15+5) + (5+5)

Adding the two ages in current times, the sum is 30.

20 + 10 = 30

Answer:

Globalization.

Explanation:

Globalization is the autonomy of all those parameters (economy, communication, etc.) that until recently sought to have borders within a protective state. The parameters that tend to break free and spread after globalization are trade, social structure, technology, culture, political system, knowledge, etc.

Thus, globalization is the word that describes the interdependence of the different national economies around the world, that is, the breaking of the borders of the different markets and the creation of a unified market at a global level, characterized by the deregulation of certain parameters such as labor or the interconnection of different populations through technology.
