Answer:
4 variables
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope you pass your test!
We are given
It takes a word processor 22 minutes to word process and spell check 4 pages
so, firstly we can find rate
total time =22 min
number pf pages =4
processing rate = ( number of pages)/( total time)
So, processing rate is

page /min
now, we are given total number of pages =26
Time = (total number of pages)/( processing rate)
so, time is

now, we can simplify it


So, the time taken to word process and spell check 26 pages is 143 min........Answer
Do you have a pictures you could insert
There may be more than one way in which to answer this question. I will assume that the "equation" is a linear one: f(x) = mx + b.
Then (16/3) = m(1) + b
This is one equation in two unknowns, so it does not have a unique solution. Was there more to this problem than you have shared?
If we assume that the y-intercept (b) is zero, then y = mx, and
16/3 = 1m, so that m = 16/3, and so y = (16/3)x.
The values of x and y are 5 and 2 respectively
