<span>Estimate 6.1 DIVIDED 8
When you say estimate, meaning you have to round off the decimal to its nearest whole number to solve it easily
=> 6.1 = 6
=> 6 / 8 = 0.75 is the quotient of the given equation.</span>
3x = -5y -------------- (1)
6x - 7y = 17 --------- (2)
From (1):
3x = -5y
x = -5/3 y ---------- sub into (2)
6 (-5/3 y) - 7y = 17
-10y - 7y = 17
-17y = 17
y = -1 ------------ Sub into (1)
3x = -5 (-1)
3x = 5
x = 5/3
Ans: x = 5/3, y = -1
Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours = x.
Jay reads 55 pages per hour, so in x hours, he reads 55x pages.
After reading for x hours, he has 278 - 55x pages left to read.
Odhran reads 45 pages per hour, so in x hours, he reads 45x pages.
After reading for x hours, he has 238 - 45x pages left to read.
Since we want to know when they have the same number of pages left, we set the expressions equal and solve for x.
278 - 55x = 238 - 45x
Add 45x to both sides.
278 - 10x = 238
Subtract 278 from both sides.
-10x = -40
Divide both sides by -10.
x = 4
