If we break the answer down, we can solve this pretty easily.
We can represent Dic's age with x.
Tom's age is 5 MORE (+5) than TWICE (2x) Dic's age (x)
Therefore, our answer is 5+2x (Five more than twice Dic's age)
The correct answer is C: 5+2x

Answer:
(b) 5, 17
Step-by-step explanation:
You can try the answer choices easily enough.
2 +3×8 ≠ 14
2 +3×5 = 17 . . . . this choice works (5, 17)
2 +3×2 ≠ 20
2 +3×4 ≠ 18
2 +3×10 ≠ 12
__
Or, you can solve the equation:
x + (2 +3x) = 22
4x = 20 . . . . . . . . subtract 2
x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
The numbers are 5 and (22 -5) = 17.
