Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"The difference of two numbers is 15."

x-y = 15

x>y

"Five times the smaller number is the same as 9 less than twice the larger number."

5y = 2x-9

y = x-15

substitution

5(x-15) = 2x-9

5x-75 = 2x-9

3x = 66

x = 22

y = x-15 = 7

Which is the best prediction for the number of pages in a chapter that takes 18 minutes to read?
mario62 [17]

Answer with explanation:

Time taken by a person to read number of pages in a chapter= 18 minutes

It is not given what is the length of the page.So,we can't say exactly  how many pages can a person read by completely understading what is written in each page in a chapter.

So, to fully understand each and every page in 18 minutes you can read minimum number of pages from the option given.

Option A:⇒ 15, is most appropriate.
