Answer:

He will read 92 pages in an hour going by the current rate at which he reads

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is as follows;

Jamil found that he reads 1/5 of his 115 - page book in 1/4 of an hour. At this rate how many pages does he read in an hour

We proceed as follows;

If he reads 1/5 of 115 in 1/4 hour

1/5 of 115 pages refer to 1/5 * 115 = 23 pages

This means that he reads 23 pages in quarter of an hour

So in an hours the number of pages he will read will be 23 * 4 = 92 pages

Y+9÷2=y-3÷4-(y/3)<br>pls help

Ann [662]

Answer:

y = - $\frac{63}{4}$ or - 15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Order of operations.

y + $\frac{9}{2}$ = y - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$ Subtract y from each side.

y - y + $\frac{9}{2}$ = y - y - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{9}{2}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$ Add $\frac{3}{4}$ to each side

$\frac{9}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{9}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$ Find the common denominator for $\frac{9}{2}$ and $\frac{3}{4}$ , which is 4

$\frac{9}{2}$ * $\frac{2}{2}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{18}{4}$ + $\frac{3}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$

$\frac{21}{4}$ = - $\frac{y}{3}$ Multiply each side by 3

$\frac{21}{4}$ * 3 = - $\frac{y}{3}$ * 3

$\frac{63}{4}$ = - y Divide each side by -1

y = - $\frac{63}{4}$ = - 15 $\frac{3}{4}$

y = - 15.75

Answer:

A is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you multiply -6 into each of the fractions and then add or minus the fractions together.

-6(1/4x)=-3/2x

-6(-2/3x)=4x

-6(5/6x)=-5x

-3/4x+4x-5x=-2.5 or A.
