The speed of the current is 40.34 mph approximately.
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Given, a man can drive a motorboat 70 miles down the Colorado River in the same amount of time that he can drive 40 miles upstream.
We have to find the speed of the current if the speed of the boat is 11 mph in still water. Now, let the speed of river be a mph. Then, speed of boat in upstream will be a-11 mph and speed in downstream will be a+11 mph.
And, we know that, 
We are given that, time taken for both are same. So 
You line them up from smallest to greatest
Answer:
$0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
Step-by-step explanation:
The multiplier for semi-annual compounding will be ...
(1 + x/2)² = 1 + x + x²/4
The multiplier for annual compounding will be ...
1 + x
The multiplier for semiannual compounding is greater by ...
(1 + x + x²/4) - (1 + x) = x²/4
Maria's interest will be greater by $1000×(x²/4) = $250x², where x is a decimal fraction.
If x is a percent value, as in x = 6 when x percent = 6%, then the difference amount is ...
$250·(x/100)² = $0.025x² . . . where x is a number of percentage points
_____
<u>Example</u>:
For x percent = 6%, the difference in interest earned on $1000 for one year is $0.025×6² = $0.90.
Hello!
We can make an equation based on what we know
The product of 9 and a number is
9 * x
Added to six
9 * x + 6
Gives the result of 24
9 * x + 6 = 24
Now you solve it algebraically
Subtract 6 from both sides
9 * x = 18
Divide both sides by 9
x = 2
The answer is 2
Hope this helps!
