Question

Lori works as a cartoonist for a teen magazine. The time she spends sketching is given by the equation m = 12s, where m is the number of minutes and s is the number of sketches. If Lori made 3/4 of a sketch, she spent minutes sketching.

Answer 1

m = 12 (3/4)
m = 12/1 x 3/4 = 9 minutes

Answer 2

9 minutes sketching.

Explanation:

According to the equation M=12s Lori takes about 12 minutes to complete an sketch, so if she has only done 3/4 of sketch the only thing that we have to do is to insert that value into the equation and then solve for M:

`m=12s\\\\m=12((3)/(4)) \\m=(36)/(4) \\m= 9`

SO Lori would take only 9 minutes to draw 3/4 of sketch.
