Answer:
let x=rate of the rowing team in still water
x+4=rate of the rowing team with current
x-4=rate of the rowing team against current
travel time=distance/rate
..
90%2F%28x%2B4%29=10%2F%28x-4%29
90x-360=10x+40
80x=400
x=5 rate of the rowing team in still water=5 mph
1) Line should be parallel to y = 3x+6, so slope of this line should be =3.
y=mx +b
y=3x +b
Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-10, 2.5).
2.5 = 3*(-10)+b
b=2.5+30=32.5
y=3x + 32.5
2) The line should be perpendicular to y = -4x -2, so its slope is going to be negative reciprocal m= 1/4.
Now we have to find b (y-intercept), using the point (-16, -11).
y=(1/4)x +b
-11=(1/4)*(-16) + b
-11 = -4 +b
b = -7
y=(1/4)x - 7
It is less because 8(2/8) would equal 2
Answer:
5/2cups
Step-by-step explanation:
If a recipe serves 6 and calls for 3/4cups, arecipe that serves 20, will call for (20×3/4)/6 cups. Mathematically;
6recipe = 3/4cups
20recipe = x
Cross multiplying we have;
6x = 20×3/4
6x = 15
x = 15/6
x = 5/2
This means a recipe that serves 20 will call for 5/2cups
