BECE Mathematics 2024 Paper

Number of pages $=10 \times \text{ time }+ \text{ Unread pages }$Number of pages $=50$time $=t$unread pages $=N$$50=10 \times t+N$Make $N$ the subject$N=-10 t+50$You can verify the relation. Assuming the student reads for 5 hours.Number of unread pages $(N)=-10 \times 5+50$Number of unread pages $(N)=-50+50$Number of unread pages $(N)=0$This means a student will complete the story book in 5 hours time.Assuming the student reads for 4 hours.Number of unread pages $(N)=-10 \times 4+50$Number of unread pages $(N)=-40+50$Number of unread pages $(N)=10$This means after 4 hours, there will be 10 unread pages.
