If you can read 45 pages in 8 minutes, how many would it take to read 36 pages?

6 minutes and 40 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, I have to make an expression to help me find the answer.

This is the expression: 45/36=8/x.

Since 45 pages is equivalent to 8 minutes, then 36 pages is equivalent to x minutes.

This is the formula we have to follow.

We have to first do 36 times 8 which gets us 288.

Then we have to divide that by 45 to get our answer.

Our final answer is 6.4 which translates to 6 minutes and 40 seconds

step-by-step explanation:

see if this :

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.
