The correct Answer is:
To convert the statement "The father's present age is 4 years more than twice the age of his son" into an expression using arithmetic numbers, literal numbers, and arithmetic operations, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Variables**: - Let the present age of the son be represented by the variable \( x \). - Let the present age of the father be represented by the variable \( y \). 2. **Understand the Relationship**: - The statement says that the father's age is "4 years more than twice the age of his son". - "Twice the age of his son" can be expressed as \( 2x \). 3. **Translate the Phrase**: - "4 years more than twice the age of his son" means we need to add 4 to \( 2x \). - Therefore, we can express the father's age as: \[ y = 2x + 4 \] ### Final Expression: The expression that represents the statement is: \[ y = 2x + 4 \]
