Given

Ted is four years older than three times Mary’s age.

To write an expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Ted is four years older than three times Mary’s age.

That implies,

Let x be Ted's age and y be Mary's age.

Since Ted is four years older than three times Mary’s age.

Then,


x=3y+4

Hence the expression is, 3y+4.
