Question

Ayanna jumps rope 32 times every minute. What is the algebraic equation to express the function of the total number of times Ayanna jumped rope? A. 32 = j - m B. j = 32m C. m = 32j D. m + j =32

Answer 1

Answer:

B) $j=32m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ayanna jumps at the rate of = 32 times/minute

To find the algebraic equation to express the function of the total number of time Ayanna jumped the rope.

Solution:

Let $j$ represent the total jumps made by Ayanna.

Let Ayanna jump for $m$ minutes.

Using unitary method to calculate total number of jumps made by Ayanna in $m$ minutes.

In 1 minute, Ayanna jumps = 32 times

Thus, in $m$ minutes Ayanna will jump = $32\times m=32m$ times

Thus, the function can be represented as;

$j=32m$  (Answer)
