Sammie read at the rate of 25 pages per hour. Alex read at the rate of 1/2 of a pages per minute. Who was reading faster? By how
exis [7]

Answer:

Alex is reading faster by 5 more pages per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex's rate of reading is 1/2 pages per minute, or 1 page every 2 minutes. To convert his rate to pages per hour, we can divide 60 (minutes in an hour) by 2 (minutes it takes Alex to read a page) which is equal to 30 (pages read in an hour). Therefore, Alex is reading at 30 pages an hour and reading 5 more pages an hour than Sammie.

What is the answer to 3/x-2 is ≥12
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0 < x ≤ 3/14

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the steps to solve it.

First, you need to solve your inequality step-by-step:

3/x −2 ≥ 12

-2x + 3/x = ≥12

Next, find the critical points of the inequality:

2x + 3/x = 12

−2x + 3 = 12x (Multiply both sides by x)

−2x + 3 − 12x = 12x − 12x (Subtract 12x from both sides)

−14x + 3 = 0

−14x + 3 − 3 = 0 − 3 (Subtract 3 from both sides)

−14x = −3

-14x/ -14 = -3/ -14 (Divide both sides by -14)

So, that gives you your answer:

x = 3/14

ACCORDING to the rate of electricity charge, the minimum charge up to 20 unit is Rs 80 and the cost per unit from 21 units to 25
azamat

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = total units of electricity after 250 units

the total units of electricity consumed can be determined using the formula below

80 + 7.3x = 1248

7.3x = 1248 - 80

7.3x = 1168

divide both sides of the equation by 7.3

x = 1168 / 7.3

x = 160

total electricity consumed = 160 + 20 = 180

160
