You decide to enter in a rowing competition. To train, you go to the boat house and begin rolling down stream. You row for the s

fredd [130]

Answer:

Time spent rowing down stream $=100\ seconds$

Speed of boat in still water $=14\ ms^{-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat in still water be $= x\ ms^{-1}$

Speed of current $= 10\ ms^{-1}$

Speed of boat down stream = $\textrm{Speed of boat in still water +Speed of current}= (x+10)\ ms^{-1}$

Distance rowed down stream = 2400 m

Time spent rowing down stream = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{2400}{x+10}\ s$ = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{2400}{x+10}\ s$

Speed of boat up stream = $\textrm{Speed of boat in still water -Speed of current}= (x-10)\ ms^{-1}$

Distance rowed up stream = $\frac{1}{6} \textrm{ of distance rowed downstream}=\frac{1}{6}\times 2400 = 400\ m$

Time spent rowing up stream = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{400}{x-10}\ s$

We know that,

$\textrm{Time spent rowing down stream =Time spent rowing up stream}$

So,

$\frac{2400}{x+10}=\frac{400}{x-10}$

Cross multiplying

$2400(x-10)=400(x+10)$

Dividing both sides by $400$

$\frac{2400(x-10)}{400}=\frac{400(x+10)}{400}$

$6(x-10)=x+10$

$6x-60=x+10$

Adding 60 to both sides.

$6x-60+60=x+10+60$

$6x=x+70$

Subtracting both sides by $x$

$6x-x=x+70-x$

$5x=70$

Dividing both sides by 5.

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{70}{5}$

∴ $x=14$

Speed of boat in still water $=14\ ms^-1$

Time spent rowing down stream = $\frac{2400}{14+10}=\frac{2400}{24}=100\ s$

Given f(x) = 3 and g(x) = 5x + 7, find (f + g)(-8).

levacccp [35]

Answer:

-30

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3 so f(-8) = 3;

g(x) = 5x + 7, so g(-8) = 5(-8) + 7 = -33

Then (f + g)(-8) = 3 - 33 = -30

This is the sum of two functions both evaluated at x = -8.

Find all real zeros of t<br>f(x)=x-14x² + 47x-18

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

x=3/7 and x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify:

-14 x^2 +48x -18

divide everything by -2

-2(7 x^2 -24x +9) (Multiply the leading coefficient 7 by the constant 9)

-2 (x^2 -24x +63)

-2 [(x-3)(x-21)] Now divide the 7 that you multiplied earlier from 3 and 21

-2 [(x-3/7)(x-21/7)]

-2 [(7x-3)(x-3)]

Hence, the zeroes are 3/7 and 3

Hope this helps!

What is the correct equation in Slope-Intercept Form?<br> (y = mx +b)

olganol [36]

Answer:

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
