Jesse and Amir were assigned the same book to read. Jesse started reading on Saturday, and he is reading 30 pages a day. Amir didn't start until Sunday, but he is reading 35 pages a day. How many days will it take Amir to catch up to Jesse, and how many pages will they each have read?

Answer the questions to solve this problem using a system of equations.

1. Write an equation to represent the number of pages Amir has read. Use x to represent the number of days Amir has been reading and y to represent the number of pages he has read.

Write your answer in the space below.

2. Write an equation to represent the number of pages Jesse has read.

Using x, the number of days Amir has been reading, write an expression to represent the number of days Jesse has been reading. Remember that Jesse started reading one day before Amir. Use this expression to write an equation for the number of pages Jesse has read. Let y represent the number of pages read.

Complete the worksheet. use 3.14 for π and round all decimals to the nearest hundredth.find the volume of the composite three-dimensional figure above. important terms are written in bold.1. the pyramid has a square base that is inscribed in the circular base of the cone. draw an image of the composite shape of the base. 2. if the side length of the square base is 8 units long, what is the diameter of the circular base of the cone from the picture in number 1? 3. now that the diameter has been calculated, what is the circular area of the cone? ignore the square base of the pyramid.? 4. what is the formula for volume of a cone? 5.to calculate the volume of the cone, the height is still needed. if the cone has a lateral surface with a length of 13 units, what is the height of the cone? 6.now find the volume of the cone. do not include the empty space for the pyramid. 7.. the side length of the square base of the pyramid is 8 units long. what is the base area of the pyramid? 8.what is the formula for the volume of a pyramid9. since the cone and the pyramid share the same vertex, what is the volume of the pyramid10.using the volume of the cone and the pyramid, find the volume of the composite shape. remember, the pyramid is empty. 11,. referring to the picture in number 1, what is the area of the composite base knowing that the square is empty? 12what is the formula to find the lateral surface area of a cone?
