Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To find Sarita's age 5 years from now, we can follow these steps: 1. **Identify Sarita's present age**: We are given that Sarita's present age is represented by the variable \( y \). 2. **Determine the age after 5 years**: To find out how old Sarita will be in 5 years, we need to add 5 to her current age. 3. **Write the expression**: The expression for Sarita's age 5 years from now will be: \[ \text{Sarita's age in 5 years} = y + 5 \] So, Sarita's age 5 years from now will be \( y + 5 \) years.
