The time required for the bottle to reach the end of Nile is 963 hours

What is Speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude

Speed = Distance / Time

Given data ,

Let the speed of the bottle in the river be S = 7 km/h

Let the distance traveled by the bottle in the river be D = 6741 km

Now , the time taken by the bottle to reach the distance D with speed S is calculated by the equation

Speed = Distance / Time

and ,

Time = Distance / Speed

Substituting the values of distance and speed in the equation , we get

Time taken by the bottle = 6741 / 7

                                          = 963 hours

Therefore , the time required is 963 hours

Hence , The time required for the bottle to reach the end of Nile is 963 hours

4x + 5y = 22<br> 7x - 3y = -32
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

x = -2

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

i multiplied the 1st equation by 3 and the 2nd by 5 to get the y-terms to zero out

   12x + 15y = 66

+  <u>35x - 15y = -160</u>

   47x = -94

x = -94/47

x = -2

substitute -2 for 'x' to solve for 'y':

4(-2) + 5y = 22

-8 + 5y = 22

5y = 30

y = 6

Basher collected 4 1/3 basket of peaches and Orchard if each basket holds 21
miv72 [106K]
To do this you times 3 by 4 and add it on to the numerator of the fraction, to turn it into a top heavy fraction:
3*4 = 12
1+12/3 = 13/3

Then you multiply the numerator by 21 to work out what 21 times the fraction is:
13*21/3 = 273/3

Then you can divide 273 by 3 to get the final answer:
273/3 = 91

He will have 91 peaches overall.
Hope this helps! :)
