Peter is reading a 193-page book. He has read three pages more than one fourth of the number of pages he hasnt yet read. How many pages has he not yet read? Estimate how many days it will take Peter to finish the book if he reads about 8 pages per day.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let n = the number of pages not read
Then the number of pages read = n/4 + 3
Since the total number of pages is 193, we have

n + n/4 + 3 = 193
5n/4 = 190
n = 152
At 8 pages per day it will take 152 pages/ 8 pages/day = 19 days

Answer:2

Step-by-step

7-(-1)/5-1=8/4 =2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1. So 7 - -1 / 5 - 1 equals 8 / 4. 8 / 4 is 2.

For the graph shown, select the statement that best represents the given system of equations. 3y – x = 2 9y – 3x = 6Help Please Thank You

Answers

You can find that out by first putting two equations in slope-intercept form y=mx+b by solving for y.
3y - x = 2
3y = x+2
y = (1/3)x + 2/3

9y = 3x + 6
y = (3/9)x + 6/9
y = (1/3)x + 2/3

They are the same line as you can see in the final step.
Since the two lines are the same line, (they "coincide") they are coincident.
Coincident means there are an infinite number of solutions, and since they are the same line, there are an infinite number of solutions.

180% as a decimal in simplest form

Answers

The correct answer is 1.8

100% = 1 

200% = 2 

Therefore, 1.8 = 180%. There is no need to add the zero and make it 1.80, it is understood even without it.

Is this correct the highlighted is the one i think.

Answers

so that is correct because we notice that the line passes through the points 5,-5 and -5,5
we notice that y is negative x so therefor D is the correct answer
IT IS! You are absolutely Right!
Now that (0,0) is the origin, it is also a point where the line lies. (-1, 1) is also a point where the line lies(in Quadrant II). And (1, -1) is the total opposite of (-1, 1).
It is in Quadrant IIII, but it is also on where the line lies
