6. 40 minutes (15/3 = 5 minutes/mile) - 5*8 = 40 min
7. 15,840 ft / 5 = 3.168 ft
w = number of weeks
b(w) = number of books read after w weeks
====================================
b(w) = 12 translates to "after w weeks, Katy will have read 12 books" or put another way "Katy will have read 12 books after w weeks". The 'w' is a placeholder for some number
====================================
b(2) = 10 means "Katy has read 10 books after 2 weeks". We use the same basic idea talked about above, but we replace w with 2. At the same time, we use 10 instead of 12.
====================================
b(3) = f means "Katy has read f books after 3 weeks" or "after 3 weeks, Katy has read f books". Like w, the f is a placeholder for some number.
Answer:
3,3
Step-by-step explanation:
to simplify you just add the 3 from the right side to the left side 3y and 3x
Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height
Area = 1/2 x 8.7 x 8.6
Area = 37.41 square feet
