Question

2. In a video game, Joseph scored 32% more points than Kelys. If j is the number of points that Joseph

scored and k is the number of points that Kelys scored, which equations are correct? Select all that
apply.
A. j = k + 0.32k
B. j = k + 32
C. j = (1 + 0.32)k
D. j = 1.32k
E. k=j-0.32j
F. k=j+0.32
G. k=j+(1 + 0.32)
H. k = 0.68j

Answer 1

The correct equation is j = 1.32k.

Step-by-step explanation:

To express Joseph's score in terms of Kelys' score, we need to consider that Joseph scored 32% more points than Kelys. This means that Joseph scored 132% of Kelys' score, or 1.32 times Kelys' score.

Therefore, the correct equation is j = 1.32k, where j represents Joseph's score and k represents Kelys' score.

Option D, j = 1.32k, is the correct equation.
