Ryan is X years old. Two times his age plus fifteen equals thirtyfseven minus two. Which equation best represents this idea? Click on your answer. Select one:
O a. 2X + 15 - 2 = 37
O b. 2X - 15 = 37.2
O c.218 - 15) = 37 + 2
O d. 2X+15 - 37 = 2

2x + 15 = 37 - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know his age is the variable x

so (Two times his age plus fifteen equals thirty seven minus two) turns into:

2x (plus fifteen equals thirty seven minus two)

plus fifteen is +15 so now we have:

2x + 15 (equals thirty seven minus two)

equals is =, so now we have:

2x + 15 = (thirty seven minus two)

thirty seven is 37, so now we have:

2x + 15 = 37 (minus two)

minus two is -2, so now we have:

2x + 15 = 37 - 2

the answer is 28
