Question

P=-30h+74 The variable h represents the number of hours he has spent reading, the variable p represents the number of pages left to read. How many hours of reading will Ethan have to do in order to have 14 pages left to read?

Answer 1

Answer: Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read

Explanation:

Given the equation

P=-30h+74

where p =number of pages left to read and

h= the number of hours he has spent reading

Therefore , if Ethan has 14 pages left to read, then the number of hours Ethan will have to read will be

P=-30h+74

14= -30h + 74

30h= 74-14

30h= 60

h = 60/30

h =2 hours

Ethan will have to spend 2 hours reading if 14 pages are left to read
