Question

You were born 2 years before your sister. Write the equation of the additive relationship where x
is your age and y
is your sister’s age.(1 point)
Responses

x=y−2
x equals y minus 2

x=y+2
x equals y plus 2

y=x+2
y equals x plus 2

y=x−2

Answer 1

In this scenario, since you were born 2 years before your sister, your age (x) is 2 years greater than your sister's age (y). Therefore, the correct equation of the additive relationship is:

\[ y = x - 2 \]

So the correct response is:

**y = x - 2**
**y equals x minus 2**
