Answer:

equation: p=15m+10

p=pages

m=months

amount of pages after 5 months: 85

Step-by-step explanation:

You know Clara already has 10 pages, and that 15 will be written per month. Therefore, the equation is p=15m+10

To find the answer for 5 months simply substitute m

15(5) + 10

75+10

85=total pages

Answer:

Equation: P=15m+10

After 5 months: 85 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 pages is the starting point of Carla's book so it will be a constant, which means that 10 will be by itself with no variables next to it. The addition 15 per month will put next to the m since this is how much she is adding each month. So the equation will look like this:

P=15m+10

To find how many pages after 5 months, simply plug 5 into m and solve for P.

P=15(5)+10

P=75+10

P= 85

85 Pages.
