Looks right to me because they wanted the ages 10 years ago.
Did you use formulas like these?
y + m + d = 50
y = d/2
7(y-10) = d -10
You need to work with the last two equations because they have the same variables.

C. humanitarianism.
Explanation: In the excerpt, Clinton discusses how the U.S. military intervention in Somalia is based on the need to provide humanitarian aid to the Somali people who are suffering from civil war and famine. He emphasizes that the goal is not to occupy the country or impose American values, but to help the people in crisis. This shows that Clinton's foreign policy goals in Somalia were primarily focused on humanitarianism and providing aid to those in need.
