Answer:

Solution: C

Equation to find Gage's age:  3g + 2 = 23  (where g is Gage's age)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let e = Everly's age

Let g = Gage's age

Given:

  • Everly's age is 2 years more than 3 times Gage's age:

⇒ e = 3g + 2

Given

  • Everly is 23 years old

⇒ e = 23

Combine the equations to create an equation to find Gage's age:

⇒ 3g + 2 = 23

To find Gage's age, solve the equation for g:

⇒ 3g + 2 = 23

⇒ 3g = 21

⇒ g = 7

Therefore, Gage is 7 years old
