Answer:

Bryson’s age is 14 years

Step-by-step explanation:

x ----> Bryson’s age

we know that

Bryson’s age multiplied by 3 minus 4 must be equal to 38

so

The linear equation that represent this situation is

[tex]3x-4=38[/tex]

solve for x

Adds 4 both sides

[tex]3x=38+4[/tex]

[tex]3x=42[/tex]

Divide by 3 both sides

[tex]x=14[/tex]

therefore

Bryson’s age is 14 years
