Answer:
x = days he reads for 4.5 hours = 1 day
y = days he reads for 3.5 hours = 6 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = days he reads for 4.5 hours
y = days he reads for 3.5 hours
x + y = 7 (1)
4.5x + 3.5y = 25.5 (2)
From (1)
x = 7 - y
Substitute x = 7 - y into (2)
4.5x + 3.5y = 25.5 (2)
4.5(7 - y) + 3.5y = 25.5
31.5 - 4.5y + 3.5y = 25.5
- 4.5y + 3.5y = 25.5 - 31.5
-y = -6
y = 6
Substitute y = 6 into (1)
x + y = 7 (1)
x + 6 = 7
x = 7 - 6
x = 1
x = days he reads for 4.5 hours = 1 day
y = days he reads for 3.5 hours = 6 days
Answer:

Answer:
The answer would be 1/2^2
To make an exponent positive, you would put it as the denominator of a fraction with 1 being the numerator.
