First let's define variables:
r: reading
s: skimming
We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem:
r + s = 275
(15/10) r + (10/15) s = 355
We solve the system of equations:
r = 206
s = 69
Note: see attached image for system solution.
Answer:
Jayden had to skim 69 pages through
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
63 divided by 9 times 10 minus 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x
y = x + 1
y-1 = x
y = 2x
y = 2 (y - 1)
y = 2y - 1
y = -1
Answer: Brielle will run the marathon faster.
Brielle = 104.8 minutes
Joshua = 157.2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed rate = distance /time
Brielle = 1.25 /10 = 0.125 miles per minute
Joshua = 1.5/18 = 0.083333 =1/12 miles per minute
Since 0.125 (Brielle) > 1/12 (Joshua)
Brielle will run the marathon faster.
To calculate the time that takes each one to run the entire race (13.1 miles)
Time= distance / speed
- Brielle = 13.1 /0.125 = 104.8 minutes
- Joshua = 13.1 / (1/12)= 157.2 minutes
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
There is no solutions.
6 ( y + 8 ) = 3 ( 2y - 7 )
6y + 48 = 6y - 21
-48 -48
6y = 6y - 27
+27 +27
33y÷33 = 6y÷33
y=2/11 or 0.18
Hope this helps!
