Answer:The expression representing Tanya's age is

3x + 12

Explanation:

Gabriella is x years old.

Her sister,Felicia is six years older than she is. This means that Felicia's age would be x + 6

Their mother is twice as old as Felicia. It means that their mother's age would be 2(x + 6) = 2x + 12

Their aunt,Tanya,is x years older that their mother. It means that Tanya's age would be

2x + 12 + x = 3x + 12
