Ales read 1/3 of a book Monday. 28 pages Tuesday . still has 1/3 left to read. how many pages in book

there are 84 pages in the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

let's call the pages in the book b.

1/3b + 1/3b + 28 = b

2/3b + 28 = b

subtract 2/3b from both sides of the equation

2/3b - 2/3b + 28 = b - 2/3b

28 = b - 2/3b

28 = b/3

multiply both sides of the equation by 3

28 * 3 = b/3 * 3

28 * 3 = b

84 = b

The book has 84 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Let's make:

x = number of pages of the book

Alex read 1/3x of the book on Monday, 28 pages on Tuesday, and still has 1/3x left to read. The sum of all these portions add up to the number of pages of the book, thus:

Multiplying by 3:

Simplifying:

x = 84

The book has 84 pages

the clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. for example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

the tone of the first line of dialogue until "gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. the narrator is trying to the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

the clue that the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. it gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.

the best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.

the words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. the sentence: mister lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.
