last monday two law students met up at Cafe literature after school to read the pages they were assigned in the legal methods class Alejandro can read one page per minute and he has 28 pages so far Carly who has a reading speed of two pages per minute has read 12 pages so far.Write an equation to describe the pages each student read.Graph the equations.Which are the ratios for each student?

Respuesta :

Let x be the number of minutes they read and y the number of pages they read.

Since Alejandro read one page per minute and he has so far read a total of 28 pages he the total amount of pages he read is:

[tex]y=x+28[/tex]

Now, Carly reads twice as much in the same time but she has read only 12 pages so far, then the amount of pages in her case is:

[tex]y=2x+12[/tex]

The graphf of this equations are:

The rate of change:

Alejandro: 1

Carly: 2
