Question 520857
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let *[tex \Large x] represent the number of pages not read.  Then he has read *[tex \Large \frac{x}{4}\ +\ 3].  What he has read plus what he has not read sum to 193, so:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \left(\frac{x}{4}\ +\ 3\right)\ +\ x\ =\ 193]


Solve for *[tex \Large x] for part a.  Calculate *[tex \Large \frac{x}{8}] for part b.

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
