On monday, mr. roberts drove 42 miles. on tuesday, he drove 5 miles more than half the distance he drove on monday. which expression shows how you could find the distance, in miles, mr. roberts drove on tuesday? ( 42 ? 5 ) × 2 42 ? ( 5 × 2 ) ( 42 ÷ 2 ) ? 5 ( 42 ÷ 2 ) + 5

Last option

(42÷2) +5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Mr. Roberts drove 42 miles on Monday.

On Tuesday Mr. Roberts drove half of what he drove on Monday plus 5 miles.

If we want to know how many miles Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday then we should divide 42÷2 to find half of 42.

Then we know that in addition to the 21 miles he drove 5 more miles. Then we add 21 +5 = 26 miles.

So the expression that gives us the number of miles that Mr. Roberts drove on Tuesday is:

(42÷2) +5

2 5/8 is the final answer! : )
