Since each sister is 2 years apart, the middle sister is the average age. If we take 42 and divide it by 3, we get the middle(Samantha's) age.  If Smantha is 14, we add 2 to get Lauren's age...16 and we subtract 2 to get Emily's age...12.

so we have...12, 14, 16 = 42

Emily is 12, Samantha is 14, and Lauren is 16. Basically all you do to solve this problem is add numbers that are two apart until you find something. 

Ex. 2+4+6=12  4+6+8=18 so on and so forth.

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You have the following parent function given in the problem above: f(x)=x

2. If you want to shift this parent function up six units, you only have the add a 6, then, you will obtain the following new function:
