You read 5 chapters of a book in 2 and 1/2 hours. How many chapters can you read in 1 hour?

2.2 chapters per hr

Step-by-step explanation:

5/2.3=2.17

2 chapters

Step-by-step explanation:

You'll have to find the rate, so divide 5/1= 5 (this is how many times it's multiplied by) and divide 2 1/2 by 5

2.5 ÷ 5 = 0.5 = 1/2 of an hour

It takes you half an hour to read 1 chapter and since you need to find one hour, multiply 1x2

You can read 2 chapters in an hour

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.
