OK. Lots of copying errors here. I'll be using 275 page book, reading 10 pages per 15 minutes, skimming 15 pages per 10 minutes, 5 hours and 50 minutes to complete the book.
To make things easier, first convert the time to just minutes. So
5 * 60 + 50 = 300 + 50 = 350 minutes.
Now let's use the variable X for the number of minutes spent skimming and (350-X) for the number of minutes spent reading.
X * 15/10 + (350 - X)*10/15 = 275
Solve for X.
X * 15/10 + (350 - X)*10/15 = 275
X * 15/10 + 350*10/15 - X*10/15 = 275
X * 15/10 - X*10/15 = 275 - 350*10/15
X(15/10 - 10/15) = 275 - 3500/15
X(45/30 - 20/30) = 825/3 - 700/3
X(25/30) = 125/3
X = 125/3 * 30/25 = 125/1 * 10/25 = 5/1 * 10/1 = 50/1 = 50
So Jayden spent 50 minutes skimming. And at the rate of 15 pages every 10 minutes, he skimmed 50*15/10 = 750/10 = 75 pages.</span>
Answer:1.09090909091
Step-by-step explanation:
D. 35 is the answer. Since we know that 14=2k based on the knowledge given in the first part of the equation, we can solve for K. We learn that K=7. Then, we can substitute K into the second equation: y=(7)(5) which is 35.
Answer:
5.5 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Mimi needs eleven 18-inch pieces of rhinestone ribbon. She purchased 5 yards of the ribbon. We are asked to find the total amount of ribbon that Mimi needs.
First of all, we will multiply 11 by 18 to find amount of ribbon needed in inches as:
We know that 1 yard equal to 36 inches. To convert 198 inches into yards, we will divide 198 by 36 as:
Therefore, the total amount of ribbon that Mimi needs is 5.5 yards.
