Answer:
135 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
y -----> the number of pages to finish reading the book
x ----> the number of hours
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to
where
m is the unit rate or slope of the linear equation
b is the y-intercept or initial value
In this problem we have
<em>Xanthia</em>
----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function
For y=0
substitute and solve for x
---> Xanthia's time to finish reading the book
<em>Molly</em>
----> the slope is negative because is a decreasing function
For y=0
--- Molly's time to finish reading the book
To find out how many more minutes than Xanthia would it take for Molly to finish reading the book, subtract Xanthia's time from Molly's time
Convert to minutes
Multiply by 60
Answer: 5, 8
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The difference between 3 times a number and -8 is BETWEEN 23 and 32
Note: "difference" means subtraction --> 3x - (-8) --> 3x + 8
23 < 3x + 8 < 32
15 < 3x < 24 <em> subtracted 8 from all 3 sides</em>
--> 5 < x < 8 <em>divided 3 from all 3 sides</em>
10% of 26.80 = 2.68
5% of 2.68 = 1.34
2.68 + 1.34 = 4.02
Your best estimate is 4.05
Answer:
I could try.
Step-by-step explanation:
If other tickmarks are labeled, then you could do some detective work (of sorts) to figure out the unlabeled tickmarks.
For example, let's say we had a number line with 1,2,3,... and let's say that 7 was covered up or erased or smudged. So we have 1,2,3,4,5,6,__,8,9. We could then easily determine that 7 must go in that blank spot. This is just one example of course.
Another example could be that if we had a tickmark right in the middle of two whole numbers, say 0 and 1. This unlabeled tickmark would most likely be 1/2 = 0.5 as its at the halfway point between 0 and 1.
