600 pages in 5 days. On the first day 148 pages read and each day after that he read the same number of pages p write an equation that can determine the number of pages on each day after the first

The answer is y = 113x

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find out the expression by substracting 148 pages from 600 pages because it is given that only at the first day, he read 148 pages :

600 - 148

= 452 pages

Next, we have to calculate how much pages did he read for each day for the remaining 4 days. In order to find the number of pages, you have to divide the remainimg pages by 4 :

4 days = 452 pages

1 day = 452 ÷ 4

= 113 pages

It is given that he read 113 pages each day in order to finish his 600 pages. Now, we have to make an expression by letting y equals to number of pages and let x equals to number of days :

Let y = no. of pages

Let x = no. of days

y = 113x

You can test it :

y = 113x

Let x = 4,

y = 113 × 4days

= 452 pages

the answer would be c:   ax + b = ax + c
