Answer:

25 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion:

\frac{pages}{minutes} = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{x}{75}

Cross multiply and solve for x, the number of pages in 75 minutes:

60x = 1500

x = 25

So, he can read 25 pages in 75 minutes at the same rate

25 pages


He read 1 page in 3 minutes for 60 minutes 75 is 15 more than 60 so what time 3 would equal 15 It would be 5 so you would add 5 more pages to the 20 pages and you would get 25

A rectangle has a length of 45 inches less than 4 times its width. if the area of the rectangle is 3325 square inches, find the
Maru [420]

The length of the rectangle is based on its width, so let's call width w and put the length in terms of the width. We are told that the width is 45 less than 4 times the width, so the length is 4w - 45. Area is found by multiplying length times width and we are given the area as 3325. So we will set up length times width and solve for w, which we will then use to solve for l. 3325 = (4w - 45)(w). Multiplying out we have 3325=4w^2-45w. Move the constant over by subtraction and then we will have a quadratic that can be factored to solve for w. 4w^2-45w-3325=0. We would put that through the quadratic formula to solve for w. When we do that we get that w = 35 and w = -23.75. The 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative is time and distance/length, so -23.75 is out. That means that the width is 35. The length is 4(35) - 45 which is 95. The dimensions of your rectangle are length is 95 and width is 35. There you go!

Estimate plz:<br> 137,638+52,091<br> Explain plz how to do it
IceJOKER [234]
The best way to estimate it is to do "written addition" in your head, adding 1+8, then 9+3, all the way until you get to the front. the actual answer is 189,459, so your answer should be somewhere close to that.
