<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
a. He will have to read half an article per night
b. Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = 
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>Part a:</u>
<u>We are given that:</u>
number of articles to read = 4 articles
number of nights = 8 nights
To get the number of articles that he should read per night, we will simply divide the the number of articles by the number of nights
<u>Therefore:</u>
number of articles to read per night =
articles per night
<u>Part b:</u>
Now, we know that he will read half an article each night from a total of 4 articles
To get the fraction of the reading assignment read each night, we will divide the number of articles read each night by the total number of assignments
<u>Therefore:</u>
Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = 
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
(c)
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x 2 equals 8 8 -2 equals 6 6 4 24
X + 5 + 11x = 12x + y
Simplify: 12x + 5 = 12x + y (We are adding x and 11x on the left side)
Subtract 12x from each side makes each zero.
5 = y
So we can plug in and test. I'm picking two random numbers to plug in for x. 10, and 82
x = 10, y = 5
10 + 5 + 11(10) = 12(10) + 5
125 = 125
x = 82, y = 5
82 + 5 + 11(82) = 12(82) + 5
989 = 989
So we verified y = 5
