sharon is 3 years old less than twice her younger brother's age. Let (s) repressent sharons age and (b) repressent her brother's age. which equation could be used to show sharons age?
A: s = 3-2b
B: b = 2x-3
C: s = 2b-3
D: b = 3 -2x
E: s = 3b-2
If Sharon is 3 years younger, then it's s = 3-b. However, it's twice her brothers age, which makes the formula our final answer, A, or [tex]s = 3 - 2b[/tex]
