Let the boat speed in still water be b.
Let the current speed be c.
The speed going upstream is 20/4 = 5 mph.
The speed going downstream is 32/4 = 8 mph.
b - c = 5 ........(1)
b + c = 8 .......(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:
2b = 13
b = 13/2 = 6.5
Plugging in the value for b into equation (1) we find c = 1.5.
The boat speed in still water is 6.5 mph and the current speed is 1.5 mph.
Answer:
41/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the root of both sides and solve.
The correct answer is 3: 35
Explanation:
To calculate at what time Jenny will arrive in Rochefort, the first step is to calculate the approximate time of the trip. Now, to calculate this consider the time of a movement (t) equals to the distance (d) divided by the speed (s), the process is shown below:
t = 483 km / 84 km/h
t = 5.75 hours
In this number 5 refers to the hours and 0.75 represents 45 minutes considering 0.75 x 60 minutes in one hour = 45 minutes. Therefore, the total time from Paris to Rochefort is 5 hours and 45 minutes. Now, to calculate the time of arrival add this result to the time of departure.
Add the hours: 5 hours + 9 hours: 14 hours
Add the minutes: 50 minutes + 45 minutes =95 minutes
95 minutes are equivalent to 1 hour (60) minutes and 35 minutes
Calculate the total
Hours: 14 hours + 1 hour = 15 hours or 3 in the 12 hour system (15 hours - 12 hours = 3 p.m.)
Minutes: 35 minutes
Answer: 127^9 so 8594754748609400000
Step-by-step explanation: i’m not sure but 4+6 (7x3)-3 = 127 127^9
