On average, Haley is able to read 4 5/6 Chapters in the her book each week . How many weeks will it take Haley to read 9 2/3 Cha

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

2 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = total number of chapters read = $9\frac{2}{3}$

m = number of chapters read per week = $4\frac{5}{6}$

x = number of weeks = what we're solving for

b is not needed to find this solution

$9\frac{2}{3}$ = $4\frac{5}{6}$ x divide $4\frac{5}{6}$ from both sides

x = 2 weeks

Divide each side by B

A/B= C+D

Reciprocate both sides

B/A = 1/(C+D)

Now multiply each side by A

B = A/(C+D)
