Using linear functions, it is found that:

  • Jose's equation is: J = 17x + 10.
  • Gavin's equation is: G = 14x + 37.
  • They will be on the same page on the 9th day.

<h3>Linear function:</h3>

A <em>linear function</em> is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Jose:

  • Initially, he was on page 10, hence b = 10.
  • He reads 17 pages per day, hence m = 17.
  • Hence, Jose's equation is: J = 17x + 10.

Gavin:

  • Initially, he was on page 37, hence b = 37.
  • He reads 14 pages per day, hence m = 14.
  • Hence, Gavin's equation is: G = 14x + 37.

The day they will both be on the same page is x for which:

J = G

Hence:

17x + 10 = 14x + 37

3x = 27

x = \frac{27}{3}

x = 9

They will be on the same page on the 9th day.
