Mike reads 10 pages of a novel on night 1. Each night after that, he reads three pages
more than the night before. At this rate,
Mike thinks he can finish reading his 219
page novel in 10 days. His brother says it
will take 22 days. Who is right? Explain.

Thus at this rate, Mike would be able to finish reading the 219 novel in 10 days. Mike is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pages of the novel = 219.

1st night, he reads 10 pages.

2nd night, he reads 13 pages.

3rd night, he reads 16 pages.

4th night he reads 19 pages.

5th night, he reads 22 pages.

6th night, he reads 25 pages.

7th night, he reads 28 pages.

8th night, he reads 31 pages.

9th night, he reads 34 pages.

10th night, he reads 37 pages.

Total number of pages read after 10 nights = 235

Thus at this rate, Mike would be able to finish reading the 219 novel in 10 days. Mike is right.
