125 minutes, or 2 hours and 5 minutes.

\frac{5}7 = \frac{x}{175}
cross multiply
5*175=7x
875=7x
\frac{875}7=x
125=x

Set up a proportion pages/pages= minutes/ minutes
7/175=5/x 
Note: x is the unkown variable or how long it will take him to read a 175 page book.
--Now do the math-- or cross multiply-- 
7(x)=175(5) 
reduce it down
7(x)=875
divide both sides by 7 in order to get variable x alone
x=125 
So it will take Jose 125 minutes to read the entire 175 page book.

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

it is y=0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

because Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3.2y−1.4y+y−0.6y=0.55

3.2y+−1.4y+y+−0.6y=0.55

(3.2y+−1.4y+y+−0.6y)=0.55(Combine Like Terms)

2.2y=0.55

2.2y=0.55

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.2.

2.2y

2.2

=

0.55

2.2
