1 answer

The equation \( 25 + p = 38 \) can be interpreted in the following way:

  • \( p \) is the amount that, when added to 25, gives a total of 38.

From this understanding, let's analyze the options:

  1. 25 more than 38 is p.

    • This suggests \( p = 25 + 38 \), which does not match.

  2. 25 more than 38 is p.

    • Same as above; again, it suggests \( p = 25 + 38 \), which does not match.

  3. 25 times as much as p is 38.

    • This suggests \( 25p = 38 \), which does not match.

  4. 25 times as much as p is 38.

    • Same as above; does not match.

  5. 38 is p more than 25.

    • This implies \( 25 + p = 38 \), which matches the equation perfectly.

  6. 38 is p more than 25.

    • Same as above; matches the equation.

  7. Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?

    • This statement implies \( 25 + p = 38 \), where \( p \) represents the number of blocks Rachel jogged. This matches.

  8. Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?

    • Same as above; matches.

  9. Drew has 38 pens. Jenny has 25 fewer. How many more pens does Drew have than Jenny?

    • This suggests \( 38 - (38 - 25) \), which leads to a different equation and does not match.

  10. Drew has 38 pens. Jenny has 25 fewer. How many more pens does Drew have than Jenny?

    • Same as above; does not match.

The correct sentences that can be represented by the equation \( 25 + p = 38 \) are:

  • 38 is p more than 25.
  • 38 is p more than 25.
  • Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?
  • Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?

So, the responses that align with the equation are:

  • 38 is p more than 25.
  • 38 is p more than 25.
  • Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?
  • Will jogged 25 blocks. Rachel jogged 38 blocks more than Will. How many blocks did Rachel jog?
