Question

Which equation represents this problem? Carol's age is three more than two times Lindsay's age. Carol is 39 years old. How old is Lindsay? Let l = Lindsay's age in years. 2l + 3 = 39 3l + 2 = 39 3l–2=39 2l–3=39

Answer 1

Answer:

2l + 3 = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

2l + 3  = C  where C  stands for Carol's age.

AS Carol is 39 we can  write:-

2l + 3 = 39.

Answer 2

Answer:

2l + 3 = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = Lindsay's age in years.

Carol's age is three more than two times Lindsay's age

Carol = 2l+3

Carol = 39

39 = 2l+3
