Answer:

she can't finish reading the book in 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of pages = 325

Number of pages read per day= 25

Using the linear relation:

y = mx + c

y = number of pages left

m = reading rate ; c = initial number of pages

y = - 25x + 325

Point slope relation :

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

m = slope

We can factorise the equation to the point slope form:

y - 325 = 25(0 - 10)

y - 325 = 0 - 250

y - 325 = - 250

y = - 250 + 325

y = 75

Hence, number of pages left after 10 days = 75, thus she can't finish reading the book in 10 days
