Answer:
Answer:
6 days
210 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
As stipulated by the question, let the number of days Amir has been reading be x and the number of pages he had read to be y.
Now since he reads 35 pages per day.
Then mathematically;
y = 35x
For Jesse, He started reading a day before, this means that the number of days he had read would be x + 1. Since he reads 30 per day, the total number of pages he would have read is 30(x+1)
To find the number of days which is x, we have to assume that at a point in time, the number of books they would have read would be the same meaning that
Also; y = 30(x + 1)
Equating the two situations
35x = 30(x + 1)
35x = 30x + 30
35x -30x = 30
5x = 30
x = 30/5
x = 6 days
This means that it will take Amir 6 days to catch Jese.
The number of books they would have read by then is y = 35x = 30(x + 1)
= 35 * 6 or 30(6+1)
= 210

Answer:
$1.49 per pound of bananas at Smiths
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 10 pounds is $14.90
2. Find how much one pound costs by dividing 14.90 by 10
3. 14.90/10= 1.49
4. $1.49 per pound of bananas at Smiths
Here's the equation:
0 = 60 x gallons - 420
In order to get how many gallons you need to make 0$ in profit, you need to:
1) Divide 420<span>÷60
2) 420</span><span>÷60=7
3) Plug it in: 0 = 60 x 7 - 420
4) Does it work? Yes.
