There are several ways to answer this question and I will use this approach. Since Johnny reads at a ratio of 7:3 it can be stated that for every 10 pages in a book containing 500 pages Johnny will read 7 of those pages. There are 50 groups of 10 in a 500-page book (50 x 10). Take the ration 7:3 times 50 and use the distributive property:  7:3(50) = (7 x 50):(3 x 50) = 350:150. Based on this Johnny has read 350 pages and has 150 pages remaining.

Is a rectangular prism has a length width and height of 3/8cm, 5/8cm and 7/8 in a meter respectively then the volume of the pris
myrzilka [38]

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the multiplication of its three dimensions: if w, h, l are the width, height and length of the prism, the volume is

V = w\cdot h\cdot l

So, in your case, you have

V = \dfrac{3}{8} \cdot \dfrac{5}{8} \cdot \dfrac{7}{8} = \dfrac{3\cdot 5 \cdot 7}{8\cdot 8 \cdot 8} = \dfrac{105}{512}

The system of equations has no solution:<br> y=2/3x-5<br> 4x - 6y = 30<br> true or false?
Serjik [45]

1. y = 2/3x - 5

2. 4x - 6y = 30

Divide 2. by 2

3. 2x - 3y = 15

Substitute 1. into 3.

4. 2x - 3(2/3x - 5) = 15

5. 2x - 2x + 15 = 15

6. 15 = 15

False. There are an infinite number of solutions.
