Arlene read 30 pages that is 10 pages more than half of the pages Taylor read how many pages did Taylor read write an equation in the form px+q=r to represent this problem

Answer 1

Let's say Taylor read x pages.
Half of the pages Taylor read is x/2.
10 pages more than half of the pages Taylor read is (x/2) + 10.
So the equation representing this problem is 30 = (x/2) + 10.
