The <em>correct answer</em> is:


C) x/21


Explanation:


Since Person 1 can complete the entire job (100% = 1/1 = 1) in 21 minutes, this person can complete 1/21 of the job per minute. This is Person 1's rate. If x is the amount of time it takes both people together to finish the job, then the amount of work Person 1 does would be (1/21)(x) = x/21.

-3x+6y= -3 and -5+y=-23
Ira Lisetskai [31]

-5 +y = -23

add 5 to each side

y = -18

-3x+6y = -3

-3x + 6(-18) = -3

-3x -108 = -3

add108 to each side

-3x = 105

divide by -3

x = -35


x=-35

y= -18

Please help me with this question. Thank you so much everyone.

Answer:

1159

Step-by-step explanation:

She wants to read 1000 pages per week for five weeks.

So in total she wants to read 1000 * 5 = 5000 pages.

The first three weeks she read 894 pages per week.

So during the first three weeks she read a total of 894 * 3 = 2682 pages.

We want to find how many pages she must read per week for the last two weeks to reach her goal.

Goal: 5000 pages

Pages read so far: 2682

Weeks remaining: 2

To find how many pages she must read for the last two weeks we simply subtract the number of pages she read during the first 3 weeks (2682 ) by her goal ( 5000 )

5000 - 2682 = 2318

So she must read 2318 pages during the last 2 weeks.

If we want to find the amount of pages she must read per week during the last 2 weeks to reach her goal, we simply divide the amount of pages she must read during the last few weeks to reach her goal ( 2318 ) by the number of remaining weeks ( 2 )

2318 / 2 = 1159

So for the last two weeks she must average 1159 pages per week.
