Question

Judah's mother's age is 4 years more than 2 times Judah's age. Mother's age is 45 years. Write the following statement in an equation.

• A. $2+2x=45$
• B. $4-2x=45$
• C. $4+2x+45$
• D. $4+2x=45$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $4+2x=45$

Let Judah's age be $x$ years
2 times his age $=2x$
Mother's age = $2x+4$
Given mother's age $=45$ years
Therefore, $2x+4=45$

So, option D is correct.
