Kayla and Evelyn are reading the same book. At the beginning of the month, Kayla was on page 19 and Evelyn was on page 49. Kayla will read 15 pages per day and Evelyn will read 9 pages per day. Let KK represent the page of the book that Kayla is on at the end of tt days into the month, and let EE represent the page of the book that Evelyn is on at the end of tt days into the month. Write an equation for each situation, in terms of t, t, and determine whether Kayla or Evelyn is farther along in the book after 2 days.

Answer:

evelyn is farther

Step-by-step explanation:

19 15x 2 days= 30    19 + 30 = 49pp

49 9x2=18  49+18= 67pp

Answer:

K = 15t + 19

E = 9t + 49

After 2 days, Evelyn is farther along.

Step-by-step explanation:

K = page Kayla is on

E = page Evelyn is on

t = number of days

K = 15t + 19

E = 9t + 49

After 2 days, t = 2.

K = 15 × 2 + 19 = 49

E = 9 × 2 + 49 = 67

After 2 days, Evelyn is farther along.
