Answer:
I believe the answer is The constant of variation is y is 6 when x is 2.
For question 4 the answer is yes and for question 5 the answer is false
Attention:THIS IS PART B <em>ONLY!</em>
First,find the unit rate.
35/2 and <em>x</em>/1
35 divided by 2 = 17.5 so the unit rate for J.K. is 17.5 pages per hour.
now,R.L.
45/3 and <em>x</em>/1
45 divided by 3 = 15 so the unit rate for R.L. is 15 pages per hour
now we need to divide 355 by 17.5 and divide it by 15.Whichever quotient is smaller,finishes the book first
355 divided by 17.5 = about 20 hrs----J.K.
355 divided by 15 = about 24 hrs-----R.L.
So,who read faster?
Each person would get 1/6 of the half pound.
1/2 divided by 3= 1/6
He started out with 19.1 gallons because if you add 5.8 and 12.4 you get 19.1
