Answer: 90 textbooks
Step-by-step explanation:
everytime you multiply the number of students you multiply the books by the same number. to find how many times 72 was multiplied you divide it by 12.
72 ÷ 12 = 6
then multiply the original number of books (15) by 6.
15 * 6 = 90
so for every 72 students the school orders 90 textbooks
5n = 3(n + 2) + 10
5n = 3n + 16
12n = 16
n = 8
8 is smaller integer and 10 is the larger.
First, let us restate the given conditions
c is 5 more than variable a ( c = a + 5)
c is also three less than variable a (c = a - 3)
Now, lets look at the answer choices and or given
c = a − 5
c = a + 3
Here, c is 5 less than "a"...so automatically disqualified
a = c + 5
a = 3c − 3
Here, we have to get "C" by itself in both top and bottom equation.
So,
Simplified version :
c = a - 5
Here, c is 5 less than "a"...so automatically disqualified
a = c − 5
a = 3c + 3
Here also, we have to get "C" by itself in both top and bottom equation.
So,
simplified version:
c = a + 5
Here, c is 5 more than "a"...so we continue
c = (a - 3) / 3
Here, c is 3 less than "a" <u>divided by 3</u><u /> . So, this is not correct
c = a + 5
c = a − 3
Here, c is 5 more than "A"
Also, c is 3 less than "a"
Which satisfies the given.
So, our answer is going to be the last one:
c = a + 5
c = a - 3
Problem 7
(45 pages)/(90 min) = 1/2 page per min, i.e. 1 page per 2 minutes
(60 pages)(120 min) = 1/2 page per min
Both lead to the same result, so yes they are proportional.
Their reading speed is identical.
