Answer:

For this case we have the following notation:

y= the number of minutes that you read

x = the number of minutes that your brother read

And we have that you decide to read 30 minutes longer than your brother, so the equation would be:

y = x+30

And for the other part of the question if x =15 we got:

y = 15+30 = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete question: "You and your brother are reading the same novel. You want to get ahead of him in the book, so you decide to read 30 minutes longer than your brother reads. Write an equation for the number of minutes you read, y, when your brother reads x number of minutes.

How many minutes will you read if your brother reads for 15 minutes?"

Solution to the problem

For this case we have the following notation:

y= the number of minutes that you read

x = the number of minutes that your brother read

And we have that you decide to read 30 minutes longer than your brother, so the equation would be:

y = x+30

And for the other part of the question if x =15 we got:

y = 15+30 = 45

A fruit seller packed some apples into 15 small cartons and 20 big cartons. Each big carton contained 15 more apples than each s
ehidna [41]

Answer:

720 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of apples in the small pack.

QTY for Small Cartons is 15A,

QTY for Big Cartons is 20(A+15) = 20A+300

From small cartons makes 25% or 1/4 of total, means the big carton makes 75% of total, or 3/4 of total. This also means the qty in big carton is 3 times of small carton

20A+300 = 3X (15A)= 45A

300 = 25A

A=12

Altogether = 15A+(20A+300) = 720 Apples

Which is equal to 8^-10/8^5 ?
makkiz [27]
8^{-10} can be converted into \frac{1}{ 8^{10} } , and applying this to 8^{-5} can see that

\frac{ \frac{1}{ 8^{10} } }{ \frac{1}{ 8^{5} } }

This gives us 

\frac{ 8^{5} }{ 8^{10} }  =  \frac{1}{ 8^{5} } = 8^{-5}
