Which of the following expressions could represent how many hours per day Enzo sleeps on average while school is in session?

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of hours, Enzo sleeps on average per day while School is in session:

            x = SS (1/115 %)         OR        x = SS (1/1.15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information, we have

⇒ Enzo sleeps per day in vacation = SS hours

⇒ Let Enzo sleeps per day in School Session = x hours

Now given that While on vacation, he sleeps 115% as long as he does while school is in session. So we get the following expression

          SS hours = x (115%) hours

    ⇒   SS (1/115 %) = x

Rearranging,we get

  x = SS (1/115 %)         OR        x = SS (1/1.15)
