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.

vichka [17]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage is divided by 100 to get it's decimal form. So 400/100 = 4.0

Now you take the value given and multiply it by the percentage in decimal form.

So in this case.

Jill and Marcy go to an ice cream store where they have the option of getting a smoothie in either a cylindrical or rectangular
k0ka [10]

Answer: Jill got the larger smoothie and its volume is 1609.14 cubic cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Jill purchased the cylindrical container.

Height of container = 8 cm

Radius = 8 cm

So, volume of cylindrical container would be

\pi r^2h\\\\=\dfrac{22}{7}\times 8\times 8\times 8\\\\=1609.14\ cm^3

Marcy purchased the rectangular container.

Height of container = 8 cm

Width = 8 cm

Length = 8 cm

so, volume of rectangular container would be

l\times b\times h\\\\=8\times 8\times 8\\\\=512\ cm^3

Hence, Jill got the larger smoothie and its volume is 1609.14 cubic cm.

A spherical balloon is inflated with a gas at the rate of 500 cm3/min. How fast is the radius of the balloon increasing at the i
Burka [1]

The volume of the sphere is expressed in the formula V = 4/3 pi r^3. The rate of change of volume is determined by differentiating the formula: dV/dt = 4pi r^2 dr/dt. When we substitute 500 cm3/min as dV/dt and 30 cm as r. Then dr/dt is equal to 0.0442 cm/min
