Sylvia and her sister are both reading books. Sylvia reads 2 pages every 5 minutes. Her sister reads 3 pages every 6 minutes. What is the difference between Sylvia and her sisters reading rates, in pages per hour? A B. 8 C 24 30​

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Silvia: 2 pages to 5 minutes

      into...

Silvia: 1 page to __ minutes

Find Unit Rate : 5/2= 2.5

Unit Rate for Silvia is  2.5

Written out : 2 pages x 2.5 = 5 minutes

Example : 1 page to 2.5  minutes

What we found : ___ pages to 60 minutes(60 divided by 2.5) is  

Silvia's sister: 3 pages to 6 minutes

     into...

Silvia's sister: 1 pages to ___ minutes

Find Unit Rate : 6/3= 2

Unit Rate for Silvia is  2

Written out : 3 pages x 2 = 6 minutes

Example : 1 page to 2  minute

What we found : ___ pages to 60 minutes(60 divide by 2) is

Final Step : 30 - 24 = 6

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
