1) Divide 3/4 by 1/2. Remember how to divide fractions. Switch the problem into a multiplication problem. 
<span>3/4 x 2/1 = 3/2 (so you could only have 1 and 1/2 servings with 1/2 pound of chicken in each serving. </span>

<span>2) Set up a little algebra problem. Let x = the multiplier of the original 3/4 pounds of chicken needed to make two full servings with 1/2 pound of chicken in each. </span>
<span>(3/4)x = 2(1/2)            (Found this online V(0-0)v)</span>

A motorboat travels 105 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream. It travels 165 kilometers going downstream in the same amount of t
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Rate in still water = 45 km/h

Rate of the current = 10 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate of the current be x and rate in still water be y.

So the rate of the boat upstream is y - x and the rate downstream = x + y.

Rate upstream = distance / time

y - x = 105/3 = 35 ...... (1)

Rate downstream:

y + x = 165/3 = 55 .......(2)

Adding (1) + (2):

2y = 90

y = 45 km/h.

Using equation (1):

45 - x = 35

x = 45-35 = 10 km/h.

Answer:  C) angle 2 and angle 7

Imagine the parallel lines form the boundaries of river. Angles 3, 4, 5 and 6 are considered interior angles as they are in the river. Angles 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 and 10 are exterior because they're outside the river.

Angles 2 and 7 are on opposite sides of the transversal cut that I've highlighted in red (see diagram below). So that's why they're considered alternate. Combine "exterior" and "alternate" to get "alternate exterior"
