Find unit rate of pages read per minute:
(5/8)/(2/3)
(5/8)*(3/2)
(5*3)/(8*2)
(15)/(16)
15/16
Kenny reads 15/16 pages every minute (unit rate)
Percent Change = New Value − Old Value|Old Value| × 100%
Example: There were 200 customers yesterday, and 240 today:
240 − 200|200|× 100% = 40200 × 100% = 20%
A 20% increase.
Percent Error = |Approximate Value − Exact Value||Exact Value| × 100%
Example: I thought 70 people would turn up to the concert, but in fact 80 did!
|70 − 80||80| × 100% = 1080 × 100% = 12.5%
I was in error by 12.5%
(Without using the absolute value, the error is −12.5%, meaning I under-estimated the value)
The difference between the two is that one states factual calculations and the other is a theoretical guess
Answer:
0 = (3-2x) x (x x 2 -5)
(3-2x) x ( x x 2 - 5) = 0
(3-2x) x (2x - 5) = 0
3 - 2x = 0
2x - 5 = 0
x = 3/2
x = 5/2
x1 = 3/2 or x2 = 5/2
