Answer:
Let p represent the # of pages in the book. Then, Nora has already read 0.30p pages and has 0.70p pages left to read.
If she reads 25% pages/night, that means reading 0.25(0.70)p pages per night, or 17.5 pages/night. If 28% p/n, that means 0.28(0.70)p pages/night, or 19.6p pages/night.
How many nights will it take Nora to finish the book if she reads 25% of 7/10 of the book per night? Without any calculations, we can answer this by "4 nights, since she reads 1/4 of the unread portion of the book per night."
If she reads 28% of 7/10 of the book per night, that will require fewer nights:
First night: 28%
Second night: 28%
Third night: 28%
Total: 3(28%) = 84%
This leaves 16% to read on the final night.
This is one interpretation of what I think is a poorly worded question.
The author of this question might have meant reading 25% of the remaining unread pages per night, which leads to a different answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y-(-2) = 1/2(x-12)
y+2 = 1/2x - 6
y = 1/2x -8
y = mx +b
It's 57 and 59
Call (n) is the first odd interger => the second odd interger is (n+2)
=> n + (n + 2) = 116
=> n + n + 2 = 116
=> 2n = 114
=> n = 57
First odd interger is 57 and the second odd interger is 59 .

The absolute value of a number is always positive. It is the distance the number is away from zero.

1 pound of coffee costs 6.95
3.4 pounds will cost 6.95 x 3.4 = 23.63
