Zoo Animal Relationship Problem

Hard Patterns And Algebra Relationships

In a small zoo, there are various types of animals including lions, tigers, and bears. The zookeeper has found that the number of tigers is always one less than twice the number of lions. Additionally, there are 4 more bears than tigers. If the number of lions is represented by $L$, the number of tigers by $T$, and the number of bears by $B$, which of the following equations correctly represents the relationship between these animals?

$B = T + 4$ and $T = 2L - 1$

$B = 2T + 4$ and $T = 2L + 1$

$B = T - 4$ and $T = L + 2$

$B = T + 4$ and $T = 2L + 1$
