Answer :

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{5}{8} + x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Kiran = x[/tex]

[tex]Andre = y[/tex]

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8}\ minutes\ more[/tex]

Required

Write an equation that represents the scenario

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8}\ minutes\ more[/tex] means that Andre read 5/8 minutes more than Kiran and this can be represented as:

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8} + Kiran[/tex]

Substitute x for Kiran

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8} + x[/tex]

Substitute y for Andre

[tex]y = \frac{5}{8} + x[/tex]
