Seth starts reading at 4:30 pm and reads 30 pages an hour. Jamaal starts reading at 5:20 pm and reads 40 pages an hour. At what time will they be reading the same page if they both began on page 1?

7:50

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the starting times is, 5:20 - 4:30, 50 minutes.

Since Seth reads 30 pages an hour, he also reads 1 page every 2 minutes or 3 pages every 6 minutes. Also, since Jamaal reads 40 pages an hour, he also reads 4 pages every 6 minutes. We now know that every 6 minutes, Jamaal reads 1 more page than Seth.

Seth started at 4:30, meaning by the time Jamaal starts reading, Seth has already read 25 pages.

To catch up Jamaal needs to read for 25 * 6 minutes, 150 minutes.

If we add 2 and a half hours to 5:20, we get 7:50.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:
