Answer:

  • y = 2/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Reading rate is y pages per x minutes and proportional relationship formula is:</u>

  • y = kx

<u>The coefficient is:</u>

  • k = y/x

<u>Let's verify if the given numbers fit into the same relationship:</u>

  • 12/18 = 2/3
  • 8/12 = 2/3
  • 20/30 = 2/3

We confirm all same and it means k = 2/3

<u>Required equation is:</u>

  • y = 2/3x

This represents that Michael reads 2 pages per 3 minutes and for x minutes he reads 2/3x pages

Answer:

2(3x - 7) =  - 4(x + 5) + 3 \\ 6x - 14 =  - 4x - 20 + 3 \\ 6x + 4x =  - 20 + 3 + 14 \\ 10x =  - 3 \\  \\ x =  \frac{ - 3}{10}  \\  \\ x =  - 0.3
