Question

Tom's age is 5 more than twice

ick's age. Which expression represents this? 10x 5x + 2 5 + 2x

Answer 1

5+2x

Explanation:

So first of all we have 5 more and by that I assume you mean + 5, this already tells us it would be this but next we have that this has to be added to 2 * Ick's age and as we can see we do have 2 * x and if x is Ick's age that is how this works.

Answer 2

Let Rick's(?) age be x.

Tom's age = 5 more than twice Rick's age = 5 + 2x

Hence, the expression is 5 + 2x.
