Answer:

4.5 mph or 9/2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the rate of the current

Formula: Distance = rate x time

where rate upstream =(12-x) and time =2 hours

15=(12-x)(2)

15=24–2x

2x=24–15

2x= 9

x=9/2=4.5 miles per hour (rate of current)

Solve in attachment....​
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

A)2

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to integrate the following definite Integral:

\displaystyle  \int_{0} ^{1} 5x \sqrt{x} dx

use constant integration rule which yields:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1} x \sqrt{x} dx

notice that we can rewrite √x using Law of exponent therefore we obtain:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1} x \cdot  {x}^{1/2} dx

once again use law of exponent which yields:

\displaystyle  5\int_{0} ^{1}  {x}^{ \frac{3}{2} } dx

use exponent integration rule which yields;

\displaystyle  5 \left( \frac{{x}^{ \frac{3}{2}  + 1  } }{ \frac{3}{2}  + 1} \right)  \bigg|  _{0} ^{1}

simplify which yields:

\displaystyle  2 {x}^{2}  \sqrt{x}   \bigg|  _{0} ^{1}

recall fundamental theorem:

\displaystyle  2 (  {1}^{2}) (\sqrt{1}  ) - 2( {0}^{2} )( \sqrt{0)}

simplify:

\displaystyle  2

hence

our answer is A

Omg, I need help! A builder is buying property where she can build new houses. The line plot shows the sizes for each house. 1/6
klemol [59]

Answer:

Average size of the lots = ⅓ acre

Step-by-step explanation:

The question incomplete without specifying what we are to determine.

Question:A builder is buying property where she can build new houses. The line plot shows the sizes for each house. 1/6 has 6 X's 1/3 has 3 X's and 1/2 has 6 X's. Organize the information in a line plot. What is the average size of the lots? _________ acre

Help anyone?

Solution:

We are asked to organize the information in a line plot. See attachment for the line plot.

Given: 1/6 has 6 X's 1/3 has 3 X's and 1/2 has 6 X'sIn no particular order, the sizes of the lots are:1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/6, 1/3, 1/3, 1/3, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2, 1/2 and 1/2 acre.

Let's count the number of lot for each size given.

For 1/6: there are 6 X's on the line plot of 1/6 number of lot for 1/6

= the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/6) × 6 = 6/6 = 1 acre

For 1/3: there are 3 X's on the line plot of 1/3 number of lot for 1/3 = the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/3) × 3 = 3/3 = 1 acre

For 1/2: there are 6 X's on the line plot of 1/2 number of lot for 1/2

= the lot × number of times it occurs

= (1/2) × 6 = 6/2= 3 acres

To find average size of the lots, we would sum all lot for each given size then divide by the total number of lots given.Sum of all lot for each given size = 1+1+3

Sum of all lot for each given size = 5

The total number of lots given = 15

Average size of the lots = 5/15 = 1/3

Average size of the lots = ⅓ acre

The following graph represents an inequality.
Leni [432]

Answer:

Opt. 1 -3 ≤ x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities are regions, the attached picture shows us a region located between -3 and 3, the dots used are solid, this means that the value '3' is include in the region.

Hence the variable is narrowed to -3 and 3.
