Answer: theres no solution
Speed, S = Distance (d) / Time (t) => S= d/t => t= d/S
Let the speed of boat in still water be x mph
Resulting speed upstream = x-4 mph for a distance of 30 miles
Resulting speed downstream = x-4 mph for a distance of 50 miles
Time taken in both distances is equal.
Therefore,
30/(x-4) = 50/(x+4) => 30(x+4) = 50(x-4) => 30x+120 = 50x-200 => 120+200 = (50-30)x => 20x = 320 => x=320/20 = 16 mph
The speed of boat in still water is 16 mph.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
You must find the common denominator for all of them.
A is correct. 13 x 2 is 26 and 14 x 2 is 28. Therefore, 13/14 is greater than 25/28.
B is not correct. 4 x 5 is 20 and 9 x 5 is 45. 4/9 is actually less than 21/45.
C is not correct. 5 x 2 is 10 and 6 x 2 is 12. 5/6 is actually less than 11/12.
D is not correct. 4 x 5 is 20 and 5 x 5 is 25. 4/5 is actually less than 8/25.
Answer:
Sylvia needs 12 l of orange juice and 9 l of pineapple juice.
Step-by-step explanation:
triple means multiplying by 3
so multiply 4 l of orange juice by 3 and 3 l of pineapple juice by 3
In math, "of" almost always means "times".
"The property" is 7/8 acre.
So "1/4 of the property" means "1/4 times 7/8 acre".
1/4 x 7/8 = (1 x 7) / (4 x 8)
That's 7/32 .
Mr. Lopez hasn't plowed up anything yet, but his plan is to plow up 7/32 acre for his garden.
