Jack read 20 pages of a book in 60 minutes. How many pages can he read in 75 minutes at the same rate? Write a proportional equa

AveGali [126]

Answer:

25 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion:

$\frac{pages}{minutes}$ = $\frac{20}{60}$ = $\frac{x}{75}$

Cross multiply and solve for x, the number of pages in 75 minutes:

60x = 1500

x = 25

So, he can read 25 pages in 75 minutes at the same rate

Please help me factor this!! Thanks!

We need to find two numbers that multiply to 24 (last coefficient) and add to 10 (middle coefficient). Through trial and error, the two values are 6 and 4

6 + 4 = 10
6*4 = 24

So we can break up the 10ab into 6ab+4ab and then use factor by grouping

a^2 + 10ab + 24b^2
a^2 + 6ab + 4ab + 24b^2
(a^2+6ab) + (4ab+24b^2)
a(a+6b) + 4b(a+6b)
(a+4b)(a+6b)

Therefore, the original expression factors completely to (a+4b)(a+6b)
