Question

I have a certain number of chocolates. My friend has 4 more than twice the number of chocolates I have. Which of the following equations depicts the relation between the number of chocolates with me and my friend?
(Assume $x$ as number of chocolates I have and $y$ as number of chocolates my friend has.)

• A. $2y=x+4$
• B. $4y=x+2$
• C. $y=2x+4$
• D. $x+2y=4$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $y=2x+4$

$x$ = Number of chocolates I have
$y$ = Number of chocolates my friend has

Then
$2\times x+4=y$
$\Rightarrow y=2x+4$
