Answer:

Two other algebraic expressions based on this situation are:

[tex]J = m-2[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{m}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m represent Meg's age.

Jill is 2 years younger than Meg.

Let J represents Jill's age

Jill's age [tex]J = m-2[/tex]

Beth is half as old as Meg

Let B represents Beth's age

Beth's age[tex]B = \frac{m}{2}[/tex]

So,  two other algebraic expressions based on this situation are:

[tex]J = m-2[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{m}{2}[/tex]
