Lia has already written 3 pages, and she expects to write 2 pages for every additional hour spent writing. How many hours will Lia have to spend writing this week in order to have written a total of 7 pages? Write and solve an equation to find the answer.

Respuesta :

7 =(2 × M) + 3

M = 2

It will be two hours

Required equation : 7 = 2h+ 3. Lia have to spend 2 hours writing this week in order to have written a total of 7 pages.

What is equation?

" Equation is defined as the algebraic expression which represents the relation between given variables using sign of equality."

According to the question,

Number of pages Lia has already written = 3

Time taken to write 2 pages = 1hour

Total number of pages Lia has to write = 7

'h' represents the time required to write total 7 pages

As per the given condition equation we get,

[tex]7 = 2h + 3\\\\\implies 2h = 7- 3\\\\\implies 2h = 4\\\\\implies h = 2hours[/tex]

Hence, required equation : 7 = 2h+ 3.Lia have to spend 2 hours writing this week in order to have written a total of 7 pages.
