Jill, meg, and beth are sisters. jill is 2 years younger than meg. beth is half as old as meg. use the same variable to write three algebraic expressions based on this situation. tell what the variable represents and what each expression represents

Assignments

Let

Jill = J

Beth = B

Meg = M

Sounds like Beth is the youngest.

J = M - 2

B = 1/2 M

Explanation

B = 1/2 M. This means that Beth is 1/2 as old as Meg.

J = M - 2  This means that Jill is 2  years younger than Meg.

Comment

I don't think you can go to three statements. You need one more statement than you've given us.

1)is not similar since corresponding sides are not in the same ratio

2)are similar since corresponding sides are in the same ratio and corresponding angles are equal

hope it will
