One hour is equal to 60 minutes. That gives you a fraction of 40 pages/60 minutes.

You don't know how many pages they can read in 90 minutes, so you would do
x pages/90 minutes.

The equation you would set up is 40/60 = x/90.

After cross multiplying you get 60x = 3600. Divide both sides by 60 to isloate the x, and you end up with x = 60.

A proofreader who can read 40 pages in one hour (60 minutes) can reading 60 pages in 90 minutes.

denpristay [2]
<span>You are selling the following items.
=> lemonade = $1.50
=> kettle corn = $3
=> hotdog = $2.50
=> p = number of people

Now, we need to write the expression of this given equation:
=> Amount = p(1.50 + 3 + 2.50) or Amount = p(1.50) + p(3) + p (2.50)
In where p is the number of people who will buy your food and will be multiplied to the amount of each food you’re selling to be able to get the total amount of money you will have.

-3x + 4y = -15 and 4x - y = -19
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

x=-7, y=-9. (-7, -9).

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x+4y=-15

4x-y=-19

---------------

y=4x-(-19)

y=4x+19

-3x+4(4x+19)=-15

-3x+16x+76=-15

13x=-15-76

13x=-91

x=-91/13

x=-7

4(-7)-y=-19

-28-y=-19

y=-28-(-19)

y=-28+19

y=-9

PLZ HELP: Write the inverse function for the function, ƒ(x) = 1/2x + 4. Then, find the value of ƒ -1(4). Type your answers in th
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is

y = \frac{1}{2} x + 4 ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )

2y = x + 8 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

2y - 8 = x

Change y back into terms of x with x = f^{-1} (x) , then

f^{-1}(x ) = 2x - 8

f^{-1}(4) = 2(4) - 8 = 8 - 8 = 0
