Using proportions, it is found that the correct time when it reads 10:30pm is of 9:40 pm.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, when 56 minutes have passed, the clock indicates that 60 minutes have passed. Hence, what is the time passed when the clock indicates that 12 hours and 30 minutes, that is, 60 x 12 + 30 = 750 minutes have passed?
Hence, the <em>rule of three</em> is:
56 minutes - 60 minutes
x minutes - 750 minutes
Applying cross multiplication:
700 minutes is 660/60 = 11 hours + 40 minutes after 10:00 am, hence the correct time is of 9:40 pm.

Answer:
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Isolate the variable y
The solution is the shaded area below the solid line
Is below because the symbol of the inequality is less
Is a solid line because the line is included in the solution
The equation of the solid line is 
To graph the solution find the intercepts
Find the x-intercept (value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)
For y=0, x=6 --------> point (6,0)
Find the y-intercept (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)
For x=0, y=2 -------> point (0,2)
Graph the inequality
see the attached figure
No,
A line is considered a "line segment" when a line connects to 2 points.
If a line was infinite length, it would never end up ending at one point.
Hope this was clear for you
J/9=5
Multiply both sides by 9
Which gets you
j = 45
