Answer:

Hi there! The answer would be B. 1/2x - 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Melanie is 3 years younger, those three years would be subtracted off of Emily's age, x. That means neither A or C are correct because A is subtracting 1/2x from 3 and it's not C because it is adding 3 to 1/2x.

Hope this helps! :)

I also just took the K12 quiz.
