Let T = the age of Tina.

Which formula will calculate Tina's age?
A) 3T+2=36
B)T+2t+3t=36
C) t+(t+2)+(t+4)=36
D) t+2(t+2)+4(t+4)=36

Respuesta :

Tina, the youngest child = t
The middle one = t + 2
The oldest one  = t + 4

Sum of all the 3 children's age is 36.
⇒t + (t + 2) + (t + 4) = 36       ←Formula to calculate Tina's age (Answer C)
t + t + 2 + t + 4 = 36  
3t + 6 = 36
3t = 30
t = 10
