Studdy Solution
This simplifies tom=30m =30So, the equation that represents the relationship between Julie's and Teri's running times is m=30m =30, which is not among the options given.
However, if we rearrange this equation to represent it in terms of how much faster Julie ran than Teri, we getm2=28m -2 =28This equation states that if we subtract2 minutes (the amount faster that Julie ran) from Teri's time, we get Julie's time, which is28 minutes.
So, the correct answer is option B. m2=28m -2 =28.
