Question

Jamal is x years old. His mother is 28 years older than Jamal. Jamal's uncle is two times older than Jamal's mother. Write and simplify an expression that represents Jamal's uncle age in years

Answer 1

From the information, we know that Jamal's mother is 28 years older than Jamal, so his mothers age should be:

x + 28 (years)

Also, we know that his uncle's age is twice as much as Jamal's mother age, so we have the following expression:

(x + 28) · 2 = 2x + 56
