First let's define variables:
r: reading
s: skimming
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem:
r + s = 275
(15/10) r + (10/15) s = 355
We solve the system of equations:
r = 206
s = 69
Note: see attached image for system solution.
Answer:
Jayden had to skim 69 pages through
K= 8. If you look at the pattern each x value is multiplied by 8 to give you the y value. You could also solve it by:
40=k5
40/5=k
8=k
you could do this with any of the x or y values and still end up with 8.
Answer:
y=5/1 - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
use rise over run
Answer:
4(2x - 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite "20" as 4 * 5
Rewrite "8" as 4 * 2
=4 * 2x - 4 * 5
Factor out common term "4"
=4(2x - 5) <------ Your answer.
