Answer:
1) pounds
2) grams
3) tons
Step-by-step explanation:
The suitable measurements for the scenarios are:
1) A piano weighs 5.5 × 10² units
550 Ib (pounds)
2) A grain of salt weighs 1.02 ×
units
0.00102 grams
3) A tractor trailer weighs 8.8 ×
units
88 ton
10²g = 1kg
10^-3g = miligrams
10^1 g = decagram
Answer:
20 mph and 4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN: A boat travels upstream for
miles in
hours and returns in
hours traveling downstream in a river.
TO FIND: What is the rate of the boat in still water and the rate of the current.
SOLUTION:
Let the speed of boat in still water be
and speed of current be
.
speed of water in upstream 
speed of water in downstream 
As 


Solving both we get


Hence speed of boat in still water and rate of current is 20mph and 4mph respectively.
