This is probably directly proportional
disregarding other factors such as eyestrain, fires, and apocalypses.
4:6
treat as fraction
4/6=2/3
how long to read 6
6/x=2/3
multiply 2/3 by 3/3 since 2 times 3=6
6/x=6/8
x=8

60X6=360 seconds, 360 divided by 4= 90, James takes 90 seconds to read one page. 90X6=540, 540divided by 60 is 9. James takes 9 minutes to read 6 pages.

Simora [160]

Answer:

7x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Mason works h hours each day during the 5-day workweek. He also works 5 hours on the weekend. Write an algebraic expression for the number of hours Mason works each week.

"h hours each day in the week"

There are 7 days, so 7 × x.

"5 hours on the weekend"

So, this can be written as 7x + 5.

The mean of 15 numbers is 12. An extra number is included and the mean increases to 13. What the extra number?

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of 15 numbers = 12

Then , the sum of the numbers = 12x15 = 180

Let the extra number included be $x$ , then

The new sum = $x + 180$

And the new total number will increase from 15 to 16

new mean = 13 , so we have :

$\frac{x+180}{16} = 13$

$x+ 180 = 16(13)$

$x + 180 = 208$

$x = 208 - 180$

$x = 28$

therefore , the extra number is 28

Can you please show me the steps and solution to this problem?

ANEK [815]

M = - 7 - 3 / - 2 - 4
m = - 10 / - 6
m = 10/6
m = 5/3

y = 5/3x + c , (4,3)
3 = 5/3(4) + c
12 = 20 + 4c
4c = - 8
c = - 2
y = 5/3x - 2

i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me
