To determine which equations correctly represent the relationship where **Glenn scored 25% more points than Ry**, let's analyze each option step by step.

### Given:
- Let $$ g $$ = points scored by Glenn
- Let $$ r $$ = points scored by Ry

### Interpretation:
"Glenn scored 25% more points than Ry" translates to:
$$ g = r + 25\% \text{ of } r $$
$$ g = r + 0.25r $$
$$ g = 1.25r $$
$$ g = (1 + 0.25)r $$

### Evaluating Each Option:

**A) $$ g = r + 25 $$**
- **Interpretation:** Glenn scored **25 more points** than Ry.
- **Analysis:** This implies a fixed increase of 25 points, not a percentage increase.
- **Conclusion:** **Incorrect**

**B) $$ g = r + 0.25r $$**
- **Interpretation:** Glenn scored **$$ r $$ plus 25% of $$ r $$**.
- **Analysis:** This accurately represents a 25% increase.
- **Conclusion:** **Correct**

**C) $$ g = r + 0.25 $$**
- **Interpretation:** Glenn scored **$$ r $$ plus 0.25 points**.
- **Analysis:** This implies a fixed increase of 0.25 points, not a percentage.
- **Conclusion:** **Incorrect**

**D) $$ g = 1.25r $$**
- **Interpretation:** Glenn scored **1.25 times what Ry scored**.
- **Analysis:** Multiplying by 1.25 correctly represents a 25% increase.
- **Conclusion:** **Correct**

**E) $$ g = (1 + 0.25)r $$**
- **Interpretation:** Glenn scored **$$ 1 + 0.25 $$ times $$ r $$**.
- **Analysis:** Simplifies to $$ g = 1.25r $$, which is correct.
- **Conclusion:** **Correct**

### **Correct Equations:**
- **B) $$ g = r + 0.25r $$**
- **D) $$ g = 1.25r $$**
- **E) $$ g = (1 + 0.25)r $$**

These three equations accurately represent that Glenn scored 25% more points than Ry.
The correct equations are: - B) $$ g = r + 0.25r $$ - D) $$ g = 1.25r $$ - E) $$ g = (1 + 0.25)r $$
