Answer:

x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = Anna's age

y = John's age

z = Tamara's age

y = x + 1

z = x - 2

the expression for the sum of Anna's and John's age minus Tamara's age is

x + y - z

and when we use the equations above to simplify that :

x + (x + 1) - (x - 2) = x + x + 1 - x + 2 = x + 3
