To find the number of minutes \( m \) it took Teri to run the race, we know that Julie ran the race in 28 minutes and that she ran the race 2 minutes faster than Teri. This means that Teri took 2 minutes longer than Julie.
We can set up the equation as follows:
\[
m = 28 + 2
\]
or rearranging it gives:
\[
m - 2 = 28
\]
Thus, the equation that can be used to find the number of minutes \( m \) it took Teri to run the race is:
\[
m = 28 + 2
\]
or equivalently:
\[
m - 2 = 28
\]
If you have a list of answer choices (A. B. C. D.), please provide them so I can identify which one represents this equation correctly.
