The speed of current will be "4.5 mph" and the rate Pratap can row in still water will be "8.5 mph".

What does "speed" mean in mathematics?

  • Speed is what it means. the speed of a change in an object's location in any direction.
  • Speed is defined as the ratio of distance to the amount of time it took to cover that distance.
  • Speed is a scalar quantity because it just has a direction and no magnitude.

Given:

Distance "26 miles" in time "2 hours".

Let,

Speed of water = y

Pratap speed when rowing in still water = x

As we know,

      Speed = distance/time

then,

  x + y = 26/2

  x + y = 13

 x = 13 - y

In return trip took him time "6.5 hours",

       x - y = 26/6.5

      x - y = 4

By substituting the value of "x", we get

 13 - y - y = 4

  13 - 2y = 4

     2y = 13 - 4

        2y = 9

          y = 9/4 = 4.5 mph (Rate of the current)

By substituting the value of "y", we get

    x = 13 - a

   x = 13 - 4. 5 = 8.5 mph (Pratap can row in still water)

Amir has a bag of dimes and quarters. He has a total of 31 coins worth $5.20.
Step2247 [10]

Answer

B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the given information for which system of equations would be used to find out how many dimes and quarters Amir has?

x = dimes          x = 0.10 or 0.1

y = quarters      y = 0.25

31 coins

worth $5.20       = 5.2

x + y = 31

0.1x + 0.25y = 5.2

What types of problems can be solved using the GCF what types of problems can be solved using the least common multiple
melamori03 [73]
The Least Common Multiple is used to add fractions with unlike denominators:
Three things can happen:
1/3 + 1/7 - the LCM is the product of the denominators (in this case 21)
2/8 + 3/16 - the LCM is the greater denominator  (in this case 16)
2/9 + 5/6 - the LCM is lower than the product of the denominators (in this case it is 18)

The Greatest Common Factor is used to reduce fractions quickly:
\frac{48}{72} ÷ \frac{24}{24} = \frac{2}{3}
By using the GCF -in this case 24, I reduced the fraction in a single step.
If I kept dividing by 2/2 (not the GCF), it would take much longer:
48/72 = 24/36 = 12/18 = 6/9 and then I would still have to divide 6/9 by 3/3 to get 2/3
