A. Julie drove 15.5 miles to the grocery store. Her mother drove from the grocery store back home. What is x, the amount
miles each person drove?

B. Julie drove 15.5 miles from her home to the grocery store. Julie drives the same path going back home. What is x, the total
amount of miles traveled to the grocery store and back home?

C. It is 15.5 miles to the grocery store from Julie's home. On the way to the store, she decided to take a detour which
shortened her distance by half a mile. What is x, the new distance to the grocery store including the detour?

Is this the full question, it seems like there is something missing? If not it seems to be C. A would represent 15.5 miles as a dependent variable, which would not be the total amount. B would represent X as the total amount, not 15.5. Between D and C, C would make the most sense as the equation would be 15.5=X.5 which would fit into your question.
