She started reading a book that has 375 pages. she reads 50 pages in one day.

Linear equation:

  • y = mx + b

where

  • m = slope
  • b = y-intercept

The equation for the number of pages she has left to read is modelled as follows:

  • y =375-50x

where

  • x = number of days she has been reading the book.

Therefore, she will finish the book the follow number of days:

  • 0 = 375 - 50x

50x  = 375

x = 375 / 50

x = 7.5
