Ty's and Bea's Ages (years)
Ty's Age 1 2 3 4 5
Bea's Age 3 4 5 6 7
Let x represent Ty's age and y represent Bea's age. Choose the correct equation below.
b. y=2x
c. x+2
d. y=x+2
d. y=x+2
The correct equation for representing Ty's and Bea's ages is:
d. y = x + 2
To determine the correct equation, let's analyze the given ages of Ty and Bea.
Ty's Age: 1 2 3 4 5
Bea's Age: 3 4 5 6 7
Based on the ages given, we can see that Ty is two years younger than Bea. Therefore, the equation relating their ages would be y = x - 2.
None of the provided equations (b, c, or d) match the correct equation. The correct equation should be:
y = x - 2
So, the correct answer would be none of the above.
