First, make an expression      0.8x + 5.5
 Plug in the values                0.8(6.25) +5.5
Solve                                    5 + 5.5
Simplify                                10.5

It will take you 10.5 minutes to read 6.25 pages and take the test.

Answer: 10.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Time taken to read each page of health book = 0.8 minutes

Time taken to take the test at the end = 5.5 minutes

Let x be the number of pages of book to read, then time taken to read pages and take the test is given by :-

[tex]T(x)=0.8x+5.5[/tex]

If we read 6.25 pages, then time taken to read 6.25 pages and take the test is given by :-

[tex]T(6.25)=0.8(6.25)+5.5=5+5.5=10.5\ minutes[/tex]
