Set up a proportion
30 done/100 total = 147 so far/x total
cross multiply
30x = 14700
divide by 30
x = 490
the book is 490 pages long

One number is five less than a second number. Three times the first is 14 more than 4 times the second. Find the numbers.

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Second number = -29

First number = -34

Step-by-step explanation:

Second number = x

First number = x - 5

3*(x-5) = 4x + 14

3x - 3*5 = 4x + 14

3x - 15 = 4x + 14

-15 = 4x +14 - 3x

-15 = x + 14

-14 - 15 = x

x = -29

Second number = -29

First number = -29 - 5 = -34

A salesperson has to drive 500 miles. For the first three hours she drove at 65 mi/h. For the next two hours she drove at 55 mil

yarga [219]

Answer: she has 195 miles more to cover

Step-by-step explanation:

A salesperson has to drive 500 miles.

For the first three hours she drove at 65 miles/hour.

Distance = speed × time.

This means that distance covered in the first 3 hours is

65 ×3 = 195 miles

For the next two hours she drove at 55 miles per hour.

This means that distance covered in the next two hours is

55 × 2 = 110 miles

The total distance that the salesperson has to cover is 500 miles

Distance already covered is

195 + 110 = 305 miles

Distance remaining will be total distance - distance already covered. It becomes

500 - 305 = 195 miles
