Riya is $x$ years old. Read what her mother and her Dadi (grandmother) say in the picture. Which expression gives Dadi's age in years?

To evaluate an expression, **substitute** a value for the variable and compute. If $x=5$, then $2x+3$ becomes $2\times 5+3=10+3=13$. The same expression with $x=0$ gives $2\times 0+3=3$. Practise substituting — it is the bridge between an algebraic expression and a real number.
