The unit rate you're trying to find is pages per day(or p/d), so the equation needs to have both a unit for pages and for days.
The equation we have is:
If they read 5,249 <em>pages</em>, then we can include the unit for pages in the equation.
Since we also know that <em>d</em> is the number of days it took, you can replace <em>d</em> with days.
The equation becomes:
Now that we have one variable, we can solve for <em>p/d</em>:
Thus it took them 181 days to read it all.
If Johnny read 5,249 pages over 181 days and the unit rate is pages per day(p/d), then the equation for finding <em>p/d</em> is:
Johnny read 29 pages per day.
Using a system of equations, it is found that there are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are given as follows:
- Variable x: number of dimes in his pocket.
- Variable y: number of quarters in his pocket.
He has a total of 14 coins, hence:
x + y = 14 -> y = 14 - x.
They are worth $2.75, hence, considering the value of each coin(dimes $0.1 and quarters $0.25), we have that:
0.1x + 0.25y = 2.75
Since y = 14 - x:
0.1x + 0.25(14 - x) = 2.75
x = (0.25*14 - 2.75)/0.15.
x = 5.
y = 14 - x = 14 - 5 = 9.
There are 5 dimes and 9 quarters in his pocket.

Answer:
Collinear points are points all in one line and non collinear points are points that are not on one line. Below points A, F and B are collinear and points G and H are non collinear. Coplanar points are points all in one plane and non coplanar points are points that are not in the same plane.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Square all three numbers. If the largest number squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two, then the numbers form a Pythagorean triple.
<u><em>or</em></u>
Since a Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c such that (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), first take the sum of the squares of the two legs and make an estimate. For example, 3, 4, and 5 is a Pythagorean triple since 9+16=25

The actual width of the room is 20 ft and the actual length of the room is 15 ft
Since on the scale, 2 in : 5 ft and the width of the room on the drawing is 8 in.
Let the actual width of the room is w.
The ratio of the drawing to actual width is 8 in : w
So, 2 in : 5 ft = 8 in : w
2 in/5 ft = 8 in/w
So, w = 8 in × 5 ft/2 in
w = 4 × 5 ft
w = 20 ft
Also, the length of the room on the drawing on the drawing is 6 in.
Let the actual length of the room is L.
The ratio of the drawing to actual length is 6 in : L
So, 2 in : 5 ft = 6 in : L
2 in/5 ft = 6 in/L
So, L = 6 in × 5 ft/2 in
L = 3 × 5 ft
L = 15 ft
So, the actual width of the room is 20 ft and the actual length of the room is 15 ft.
