1618 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jerold reads at a rate of 3 pages in 2 minutes. He as a 2427 page novel to read and a 906 page mystery book to read. How long will it take him to read his novel?

From the question above, the number of pages for his novel = 2427 pages

His reading rate =

3 pages = 2 minutes

Hence:

3 pages = 2 minutes

2427 pages = x minutes

Cross Multiply

3 pages × x = 2427pages × 2 minutes

x = 2427pages × 2 minutes/3 pages

x = 1618 minutes

It would take him 1618 minutes to read his 2427 paged novel

step-by-step explanation: yes

answer: integers are just whole numbers: positive, negative, and zero.

i = {-∞, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ∞}

let x = 1st integer

let y = 2nd integer

x = 3y + 17   {equation 1}

xy = -24         {equation 2}

substitute 3y+17 in place of x n equation 2

and solve for y.

(3y+17)y = -24

3y2 + 17y = -24

3y2 + 17y + 24 = 0

from quadratic equation:

y = [-17±√(172-4(3)(24))]/(2(3))

y = (-17 ±√1)/6

y = (-17+1)/6   or     y = (-17-1)/6

y = -16/6           or     y = -18/6

y = -2 2/3         or   y = -3

since we are dealing with

y = -3

x = 3y+17 = -9+17 = 8

the integers are -3, 8
