An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The correct option is x+y=557 and Three-fifths(x)+five-sixths(y)=407.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Let the total number of pages in the shorter book be represented by x, and the total number of pages in the longer book be represented by y.

Given the total number of pages of the shorter book and the longer book is 557. Therefore, the equation can be written as,

x+y =557

Also, Scott reads Three-fifths of the shorter book and StartFraction 5 Over 6 EndFraction of the longer book, which is equal to 407 pages. Therefore,

(3/5)x + (5/6)y = 407

Hence, the correct option is x+y=557 and Three-fifths(x)+five-sixths(y)=407.

Answer:

I believe its y=5(4)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is supposed to look like y=ab^x

a is basically where it all starts, so where the y meets the 0

- so the 5 in the y's place meets the 0

b is what you're multiplying by on the y's side, which is by 4 every time

and the x is the exponent and since there is no exponent you leave it as x

Answer:

Total time taken by walking, running and cycling = 22 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of walking = x

As given,

The distance of walking = 1

Now,

As $Time = \frac{Distance }{Speed}$

⇒ Time traveled by walking = $\frac{1}{x}$

Now,

Given that - He runs twice as fast as he walks

⇒Speed of running = 2x

Also given distance traveled by running = 1

Time traveled by running = $\frac{1}{2x}$

Now,

Given that - he cycles one and a half times as fast as he runs.

⇒Speed of cycling = $\frac{3}{2}$ (2x) = 3x

Also given distance traveled by cycling = 1

Time traveled by cycling = $\frac{1}{3x}$

Now,

Total time traveled = Time traveled by walking + running + cycling

= $\frac{1}{x}$ + $\frac{1}{2x}$ + $\frac{1}{3x}$

= $\frac{6+3+2}{6x} = \frac{11}{6x}$

If he cycled the three mile , then total time taken = $\frac{1}{3x}$ + $\frac{1}{3x}$ + $\frac{1}{3x}$ = x

Given,

He takes ten minutes longer than he would do if he cycled the three miles

⇒x + 10 = $\frac{11}{6} x$

⇒ $x - \frac{11}{6} x = -10$

⇒ $-\frac{5}{6}x = -10$

⇒x = $\frac{60}{5}$ = 12

⇒x = 12

∴ we get

Total time traveled by walking + running + cycling = $\frac{11}{6} x = \frac{11}{6} (12) = 11 (2) = 22$ min

muminat

Answer:

let x be the total amount of gallons he bought

$16.80÷$1.40 = x

16.80÷1.40=12
