Which answer choice shows an expression that represents the total distance Jalen and Monique ran this month if j = the number of times that Jalen ran and m = the number of times that Monique ran? 1 .15j + 15m 2. 15jm 3. 7.5j + 7.5m + 32 4. 7.5jm + 32

Answer 1

7.5j + 7.5m + 32

Explanation:

Answer 2

7.5j + 7.5m + 32

Explanation:

J=number of miles that Jalen run

M=number of miles that Monique run

They each run 7.5 miles each time they go running

Jalen runs additional 32 miles this month

Jalen=7.5j+32

Monique=7.5m

Total distance Jalen and Monique ran for the month

=(7.5j+32)+(7.5m)

Open parenthesis

7.5j+42+7.5m

=7.5j+7.5m+32
