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.

Suppose the interval ​[negative 3−3​,negative 1−1​] is partitioned into nequals=44 subintervals. What is the subinterval length
Kobotan [32]

Answer: Δx​ = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the interval:

​[−3​, −1​]

and we partition it into 4 equal intervals.

first, the range of our interval is equal to the difference between the extremes, this is:

-1 - (-3) = -1 + 3 = 2

Then, if we divide it into 4, we have 4 segments with a range of:

2/4 = 0.5

Then the subinterval delta is 0.5, and the 4 intervals are:

​[−3​, -2.5​],  ​[−2.5, −2​],  ​[−2​, −1.5​],  ​[−1.5, −1​]
