Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
If w is .47 and v is 13.5 then, 0.47=6.75Q
Answer:
4:6
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratios and fractions can be written interchangably
It would be 2m because each ticket is 2 dollars and then you have to multiply it by the number of tickets you are buying M

Answer:
E. 37
Step-by-step explanation:
Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary:
(4x -2)° +34° = 180°
4x = 148 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 32
x = 37 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
