Answer:

The speed of the stream is 22.36 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

The course of the boat contains two stages of equal length. On the first one he is going downstream, so its resultant speed is "30 + x" km/h, where "x" is the speed of the stream. On the other hand for the second part of the course he is going against the stream, so the resultant speed is " 30 - x" km/h. The time of each course must be:

t_1 = \frac{30}{30 + x}

t_2 = \frac{30}{30 - x}

The sum of these times must be equal to the total time of the course, therefore:

t_1 + t_2 = 4.5\\\frac{30}{30 + x} + \frac{30}{30 - x} = 4.5\\\frac{30*(30 - x) + 30*(30 + x)}{(30 + x)(30 - x)} = 4.5\\900 - 30*x + 900 + 30*x = 4.5*(900 - x^2)\\4050 - 4.5*x^2 = 1800\\4.5*x^2 = 4050 - 1800\\4.5*x^2 = 2250\\x^2 = \frac{2250}{4.5}\\x^2 = 500\\x = 22.36

The speed of the stream is 22.36 km/h.

A printing company charges $5.00 for the first 400 pages printed. For each page printed over 400, the customer is charged an add
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Up to 400 pages, the cost is fixed at 5.00 dollars

After 400 pages the cost is 0.01 cents/page

  • It's not A. 400 is the number of pages. It is not a cost.
  • It's not B either. B means that no matter how many pages you print, it's going to cost 5 dollars + the number of pages times 1 cent.
  • C is not the answer. It is really just an answer put it. You pay 1 cent for each page between 400 and what you printed.
  • I think D is the answer, but if you get a negative number, then the cost is 5 dollars
