Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.
b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c
The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
82 tens in the same thing as 820 because if you multiply 82 by 10 you get 820
Answer:
x = 8, y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the second equation by -2:
x + 6y = 20
-2x - 6y = -28
Add the equations and simplify:
-x = -8
x = 8
Plug x = 8 back into the first equation and solve for y:
8 + 6y = 20
6y = 12
y = 2
i’m not sure imma look stuff up and get back to you tho
