The speed of the current is 7 miles per
hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let × represent speed of the current.
We have been given that a motorboat
maintained a constant speed of 11 miles per
hour relative to the water in going 18 miles
upstream and then returning.
The speed of motorboat while going
upstream would be 11
The speed of motorboat while going
downstream would be 11 + 2

A supermarket reduced the price per pound whole chicken by 20%. How many pounds of chicken can now be purchased for the amount o
nignag [31]

Answer:

25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that initially, 1 pound of whole chicken costs x.

So, initially 20 pounds of whole chicken costs 20x.

Now, the price is reduced by 20%.

That means that 1 pound of whole chicken now costs  x[1-\frac{20}{100} ]=0.8x

Therefore, with a 0.8x amount of money, we can now purchase 1 pound of the whole chicken.  

Hence, with a 20x amount of money, we can now purchase \frac{20x}{0.8x}=25 pounds of the whole chicken.
