Question

Angel, Brandon, and Carla work in the same office.

•Angels age is 4 years more than twice than Carla’s age
•Brandon is 5 years younger than Carla
If N represents Carla’s age, write and expression for Angels age and Brandon’s age. The sun of Angels,Brandon’s, and Carla’s age is 123

Answer 1

Because Angle’s age is twice as much as Carla’s whose age is represented by n, we can use 2n but because it is also four more than that we can just add four to the equation: 2n+4 and because Brendon’s age is five years less than Carla’s we can subtract 5 from Carla’s age: n-5
