Answer:

84 pages per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 60 minutes is an hour.

So, what you need to do is divide 60 by 25. (this equals 2.4)

then, all you have to do is multiply 2.4 with 35.

2.4×35=84

so, he'll read 84 pages in an hour.

MATH DETECTIVE:

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

- 5

Step-by-step explanation:

"I am a negative integer greater than -6."

This eliminates any number that is less than -6, as well as any positive number.

0 > x > -6

"I am less than -2."

This narrows down the possible numbers to:

-5, -4, -3.

"I am not equal to -2 + (-1)"

-2 + - 1

-2 - 1

- 3

The number is not '-3'.

"I am not equal to 2 - 6."

2 - 6

- 4

The number is not -4.

Your number should be -5.

Hope this helps.

What is the quotient? Negative StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction divided by negative one-fourth

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 fractions.

1st fraction is Negative StartFraction 3 over 8

i.e.

$-\dfrac{3}{8}$

2nd fraction is negative one-fourth

i.e.

$-\dfrac{1}{4}$

We have to find the quotient when 1st fraction is divided by 2nd fraction.

<u>Definition</u> of quotient is given as:

Quotient is the result obtained when one number is divided by other number.

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \div -\dfrac{1}{4} \text{ is to be calculated.}$

$\div$ is converted to $\times$ and the 2nd fraction is reversed i.e.

if the fraction is $\frac{p}{q}$ it becomes $\frac{q}{p}$ and the sign $\div$ is changed to $\times$ .

Solving above:

$-\dfrac{3}{8} \times -\dfrac{4}{1}\\ \text {Multiplication/Division of 2 negative number gives a positive number}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}$

So, the quotient is $\frac{3}{2}$ .

Ray industries bought a touchscreen monitor for $1200 it is expected to depreciate at a rate of 25% per year what was the value

max2010maxim [7]

So for this problem, we will be using the exponential equation format, which is y = ab^x. The a variable is the initial value, and the b variable is the growth/decay.

Since our touchscreen starts off at a value of 1200, that will be our a variable.

Since the touchscreen is decaying in value by 25%, subtract 0.25 (25% in decimal form) from 1 to get 0.75. 0.75 is going to be your b variable.

In this case, time is our independent variable. Since we want to know the value 3 years from now, 3 is the x variable.

Using our info above, we can solve for y, which is the cost after x years.

$y=1200*0.75^3\\y=506$

In context, after 3 years the touchscreen will only be worth $506.
