Answer:

Time = 25/9 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat in still water is x km/hr

then, speed in downstream equals to "x + 3"km/hr

and speed in upstream equals to "x - 3" km/hr

We also know that time taken to travel 3km in upstream is twice as time taken to travel 4km in downstream.

so, using time = distance/speed

3/x- 3 = 2 × (4/x + 3)

3x + 9 = 8x -24

5x = 33

x = 33/5 km/hr

Net speed in upstream = 33/5 - 3 = 18/5 km/hr

So, Time taken to travel 10km upstream = distance /speed

= (10 × 5) / 18 = 25/9 hr

Time = 25/9 hr

Find the seventh term of the

jekas [21]

Answer:

$T_7 = \frac{64}{729}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a =1$

$r = \frac{2}{3}$

Required

Determine the 7th term

The nth term of a gp is:

$T_n = a * r^{n-1$

So, we have:

$T_7 = 1 * \frac{2}{3}^{7-1$

$T_7 = 1 * \frac{2}{3}^{6$

$T_7 = 1 * \frac{2^6}{3^6}$

$T_7 = 1 * \frac{64}{729}$

$T_7 = \frac{64}{729}$

Suppose a is jointly proportional to b and c. if a=4 when b=8 and c = 9, then what is a when b=2 and c=18

asambeis [7]

From the given information, a exists jointly proportional to b and c.

then $$a \propto b c$

Therefore, the value of a exists 2.

<h3>What is the value of a?</h3>

Given, a exists jointly proportional to b and c.

$$a \propto b c$

Taking K as the constant of proportionality.

a = K b c

For b = 8 and c = 9, the value of a = 4

4 = K(8)(9)

4 = 72 K

Dividing the equation by 72, we get

$$K=\frac{1}{18}$

Using the value of K in the equation:

$$a=\frac{b c}{18}$

Substitute the values of b = 2 and c = 18, in the above equation

$$a=\frac{2 \times 18}{18} \\$

a = 2

Therefore, the value of a exists 2.

A spinner has four sections lettered A, B, C, and D. The table shows the results of several spins. Find the experimental probabi

Degger [83]

Experimental probability is the outcome during a certain experiment. add up the total number of times it was spinned. You should get 40. To find the experimental probability of each section, simply divide the number by 40. This will give you the percentage for each one. For example, spinner A. 14/40=.35 Multiply this by one hundred to find the percentage (35%). Do this for all and let me know if you need help converting them to fractions. :)
