Start at the beginning. 17 pages times 120 sentences is the first thing.
17 x 120 = 2040. So she has to read 2,040 sentences. If we now divide 2.040 by 14 pages/minute, we shoud get

2,040 divided by 14 = 145.7

The last thing to do, is changes those minutes into hours by dividing by 60.
2.42 hours.

Solve the given equation
AlexFokin [52]
Eliminate the fractions by multiplying by least common multiple.
4,9,12 all go into 36 evenly. Multiply entire equation by 36.

36/4 = 9
36/9 = 4
36/12 = 3

New equation looks like:
9(w-1) +4(w+1) = -3(w+1) \\  \\ 9w -9 +4w +4 = -3w -3  \\  \\ 9w +4w+3w = -3 +9 -4 \\  \\ 16w = 2 \\  \\ w = \frac{2}{16} = \frac{1}{8}

if employee a logged 120 hours of travel in four years and employee b logged of travel at a 20% higher rate how many more hours
Gnoma [55]
First we need to find the rate of logging for employee A per year. To do this, the number of hours can be divided by the number of years to find out how many hours of travel they log per year.

120 ÷ 4 = 30. Employee A logs roughly 30 hours of travel per year.

To find a percentage increase of 20%, you need to multiply by 1.2. 
30 x 1.2 = 36. 
Therefore, Employee B logs roughly 36 hours of travel per year.

To find out how many hours of travel Employee B logs after 1.5 years, we simply need to multiply 36 by 1.5, which equals 54.

To find out how many hours of travel Employee A logs after 1.5 years, we simply need to multiply 30 by 1.5, which equals 45.

Finally, we need to find out how many MORE hours Employee B logged after 1.5 years compared to Employee A. To do this, we simply need to do 54 - 45 = 9 hours.

Working = (((120/4) x 1.2) x 1.5) - (120/4 x 1.5)
Answer = 9 hours.
