Form an equation and solve it to answer the question.
An editor needs to read a 700-page manuscript. Her goal is to proofread 28 pages each day. If she has already read 112 pages, how many more days will it take her to complete the proofreading?

Respuesta :

Answer:

y = 28x + 112, 21 days

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 700

28x where x is the number of days it will take, plus the 112 pages she has already read

y= 28x + 112

700 = 28x +112

588 = 28x

x = 21

It will take the editor 21 days to proofread the manuscript

112+28x=700

Step-by-step explanation:

x=21
