A = 1/2bh
40 = 1/2 x^2
x^2 = 80
x = 8.9
Answer:
21 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
The speed downstream is b+7 if the boat's speed is b. The speed upstream is b-7, and the times in each direction are equal. This means ...
20/(b+7) = 10/(b-7) . . . . . . time in each direction are the same
20(b-7) = 10(b+7) . . . . . . . cross multiply
(20-10)b = 7(10+20) . . . . . add 7(20)-10b
b = 7(20 +10)/(20 -10) = 21 . . . . mph
The speed of the boat in still water is 21 mph.
Answer:
He caught 13 squirtles
Step-by-step explanation:
104/8 = 13 squirtles
Squirtles divided by pidgeys
You can't have a square root of a negative number
First number = x
Second number = x + 2
Third number = x + 4
X + x +2 + x + 4 = 438
Simplify:
3x + 6 = 438
Subtract 3 from both sides
3x = 432
Divide both sides by 3
X = 144
The second number is 144 + 2 = 146
