Carlos is five years older than twice his sister's age. carlos is 13.which equation and solution correctly identifies his sister's age? 2x - 5 = 13; x = 92x 5 = 13; x = 42x - 5 = 13; x = 42x 5 = 13; x = 9

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Carlos is five years older than twice his sister's age. carlos is 13.

Let x represents the sister's age

Carlos age = twice of sisters age plus 5 years

twice of sister's age means 2 times sister's age

Carlos age =

Now Carlos age is 13

So the equation is

Now we solve for x to find the solution

Subtract 5 from both sides

Divide both sides by 2

(23*2)-12=x     x=34
