X = the number of people in the color guard
3x - 15 = 105
3x = 105 + 15 
3x = 120
x = 40
there are 40 people in the color guard :)

Garth can row 5 miles per hour in still water. It takes him as long to row 4 miles upstream as 16 miles
Elza [17]

Answer:

The speed of the current is 3 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations for rate (r), distance (d), and time (t) are ⇒ d = rt, r = d/t, = t = d/r

Let x = speed in still water

Let c = speed of the current

The main difference with these problems is rate needs to be expressed using two variables  because moving upstream the current is against you and downstream it moves with you.

Distance Rate Time

Upstream x − c

Downstream x + c

The distance column with the numbers from the problem and the value for speed in  still water for x.

Distance Rate Time

Upstream 4 5 − c

Downstream 16 5 + c

The column for time using the other two columns knowing that  rate,  distance  ⇒ time =  Distance Rate Time

Upstream 4 5 − c

5 − c

4

Downstream 16 5 + c

5 + c

16

“It takes as long …” from the problem means that the two times are equal to each other.  So, the equation can be written as:

4/5− c = 16/5 + c  ⇒ Solve by cross-multiplying ⇒ 5(4 + c) = 16 5( − c) ⇒ c = 3
