Solution

Yes, the total number of pages read is proportional to the number of hours spent reading. This is because if Jaden reads at a constant rate of 177 pages per hour, the total number of pages read depends directly on the number of hours spent reading. As the hours increase, the total number of pages increases proportionally.

Would you like further explanation or have any questions?

Here are five related questions:

  1. What is the equation for the total number of pages read if Jaden reads for h hours?
  2. If Jaden reads for 5 hours, how many pages will he read in total?
  3. How many hours would it take Jaden to read 885 pages?
  4. If Jaden reads 1062 pages, how many hours has he spent reading?
  5. What would happen to the proportionality if Jaden changes his reading speed?

Tip: In proportional relationships, the ratio between two quantities remains constant.
