Answer:
Hence the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages when they read a combined of 36 pages.
Step-by-step explanation:
The table that can be formed by the rate at which they study the number of pages of a book is:
Fred Lonnie total
5 4 9
10 8 18
15 12 27
20 16 36
That means when they read a combined of 36 pages.
Then the number of pages read by Fred is 20 pages.
and the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages.
(
Also it could be done as :
Let Fred reads 'x' pages.
so, the number of pages read by Lonnie is: (4/5)x
Hence,
x+(4/5)x=36
on solving this linear equation we have:
x=20
and (4/5)x=16
)
Hence the number of pages read by Lonnie is 16 pages when they read a combined of 36 pages.
If the new technology innovation improves the production by 10%, they are increasing the amount of cars made by 10%.
Originally, 120 cars were made per day.
10% of 120 is 12.
Since the amount of cars made per day was increased by 12, we can add 12 to 120 to get 132 cars made per day (as the new unit rate).
The question asks how many cars can be produced in 5 days (after the car production increase). We can get the answer by multiplying our new daily amount of cars by 5: 132 times 5.
132 times 5 = 660
So, 660 cars can be produced in the factory in 5 days.
I think you mean like a number decreasing at a percentage. Yea it’s gonna be positive cause like it’s a number but then it’s probably gonna say decreasing making it negative or increasing making it positive. I’m pretty sure, correct if I’m wrong.
