Answer:

Option (B) 4 = 2x - 3

Explanation:

Let distance travel by Marcus be "x" miles

Then, according to question

Distanced travelled by Jenney will be

twice of "x" minus 3.

Distance travelled by Jenny = 2x - 3.

Also, it is given that Jenny has travelled 4 miles.

then, 4 = 2x - 3. So, here option (B) is the correct option.
