**Please Help, Respond soon....Will mark brainliest for correct answer**

Respuesta :

The algebraic expression is 2/3(2y + y)

How to determine the expression

The length of the 2/3 feet long

It is broken into two parts x and y

If x is twice the length of y, we have

x = 2y

The algebraic expression is 2/3/x + y , if x = 2y

We have that,

2/3(2y + y)

Thus, the algebraic expression is 2/3(2y + y)
