If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph, and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, what is the rate of the boat

in each case? a) The boat is going upstream (that is, against the current, which slows the boat down.) b) The boat is going downstream (that is, with the current, which speeds the boat up.) a) The rate of the boat when the boat is going upstream is (_) mph. b) The rate of the boat when the boat is going downstream is (_) mph.

Answer:

a)27-x

b)27+x

Step-by-step explanation:

when a boat travels in the same direction as the current is downstream-->speeds the boat. If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, the rate of the boat when the boat is going downstream is 27+x

when a boat travels against the current is upstream-->slow down. If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, the rate of the boat when the boat is going upstream is 27-x

INSCRIBED ANGLES PLZ HELP ASAP
Taya2010 [7]
The answer is 46°.

The measure of an inscribed angle is equal to (1/2) the measure of the intercepted arc. 

That means that, since ADC is 23 degrees, doubling that gives you 46 degrees, the measure of the intercepted arc.

Central angles are equal to the measure of the intercepted arc, which in this case is the same arc we just calculated.

Therefore it's 46.

The function, f(x) = –2x2 + x + 5, is in standard form. The quadratic equation is 0 = –2x2 + x + 5, where a = –2, b = 1, and c =
avanturin [10]
Given:

The function, f(x) = -2x^2 + x + 5

Quadratic equation: 0 = -2x^2 + x +5
where a = -2
            b = 1
            c = 5

The discriminate b^2 - 4ac = 41

To solve for the zeros of the quadratic function, use this formula:

x = ( -b +-√ (b^2 - 4ac) ) / 2a

x = ( 1 + √41 ) / 4  or 1.85
x = ( 1 - √41 ) / 4  or -1.35

Therefore, the zeros of the quadratic equation are 1.85 and -1.35.
