The time taken by the boat to travel 32 miles downstream is 2.1 hours and for upstream 3.56 hours.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance traveled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.

Given that:-

  • A paddleboat moves at a rate of 12 mph in still water. If the rover’s current moves at a rate of 3 mph.
  • how long will it take the boat to travel 36 miles downstream and 36 miles upstream?

The time taken by the boat upstream will be calculated as:-

( B + W ) Td = D

( 12 + 3 ) Td = 32

( 15 ) Td = 32

Td = 32 / 15 = 2.1 hours

The time taken by the boat downstream will be calculated as:-

( B - W ) Tu = D

( 12 - 3 ) Tu = 32

9 Tu = 32

Tu = 32 / 9 = 3.56 hours.

Therefore the time taken by the boat to travel 32 miles downstream is 2.1 hours and for upstream 3.56 hours.

Determine which equation has exactly one real solution. PLS HELPP
sergey [27]

Answer:

b)  4x^2-12x+9=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the discriminant b^2-4ac to determine how many real solutions a quadratic equation in the form ax^2+bx+c=0 has.

  • discriminant > 0 ⇒ 2 real solutions
  • discriminant = 0 ⇒ 1 real solution
  • discriminant < 0 ⇒ no real solutions

5x^2+9x-4=0

b^2-4ac=9^2-4(5)(-4)=161 > 0\implies \textsf{2 solutions}

4x^2-12x+9=0

b^2-4ac=(-12)^2-4(4)(9)=0 \implies \textsf{1 solution}

-9x^2+6x+1=0

b^2-4ac=6^2-4(-9)(1)=72 > 0 \implies \textsf{2 solutions}

-2x^2-7=0

b^2-4ac=0^2-4(-2)(-7)=-56 < 0 \implies \textsf{no solutions}

A 1x1 square and an n-tiling is a group of n tiles placed so that every tile is contiguous along at least one side to another ti
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first picture below shows the missing image in the question.

There are 4 edges of each tile;

This clearly explains to us that the total number of edges present in the n tiles is 4n.

Now, if a tile "X" touches and comes in contact with another tile "Y", then edges touching each other are one edge of a tile X and one edge of a tile Y.

From the second diagram below, the edge, X_2, and Y_4 are touching each other.

Now, the total number of edges that touch some edges is always even.

We can now say that:

The edge length of filling = No. of edges that do not touch another file

= Total no. of edges  -  No. of edges that touch another edge.

However, the total number of edges is even.

The number of edges that touch another edge is also even.

Thus, the difference is also even and the number of edges that do not touch another is even.

So, the edge length of filling is always even.

A hyperbola centered at the origin has verticies at (add or subtract square root of 61,0 and foci at (add or subtract square roo
deff fn [24]

Answer:

\frac{x^2}{61}-\frac{y^2}{37}  =1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a hyperbola is given by:

\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} -\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} =1

where (h, k) is the center, the vertex is at (h ± a, k), the foci is at (h ± c, k) and c² = a² + b²

Since the hyperbola is centered at the origin, hence (h, k) = (0, 0)

The vertices is (h ± a, k) = (±√61, 0). Therefore a = √61

The foci is (h ± c, k) = (±√98, 0). Therefore c = √98

Hence:

c² = a² + b²

(√98)² = (√61)² + b²

98 = 61 + b²

b² = 37

b = √37

Hence the equation of the hyperbola is:

\frac{x^2}{61}-\frac{y^2}{37}  =1
