Answer:
4.5 mph or 9/2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the rate of the current
Formula: Distance = rate x time
where rate upstream =(12-x) and time =2 hours
15=(12-x)(2)
15=24–2x
2x=24–15
2x= 9
x=9/2=4.5 miles per hour (rate of current)
Answer:
18.88
Step-by-step explanation:
16 x 1.18=18.88
I'm not sure what exactly you did wrong, but I agree with you that the sample size is too small, so the correct answer will probably be the fourth options. Hope that this gives you some confidence, and 'm sorry not to be able to help you any further...
Depending on the way you look at the numbers, they are increasing/decreasing by 0.1.
0.36- 0.1 =0.26
0.26-0.1=0.16
0.16-0.1=0.06
0.06-0.1=-0.04
-0.04-0.1=-0.14
(Or vice versa by adding 0.1 starting with -0.14)
Make sense?
