The answer is 36 because in order to find area you multiply length and width so:
A= L x W
9 x 4 = 36
Let b and s be the velocity of the boat and stream respectively....
3(b-s)=27
b-s=9
b=9+s we will use this in the second equation....
2(b+s)=30
b+s=15, now use b found above in this to get:
9+s+s=15
2s+9=15
2s=6
s=3, and since from earlier b-s=9, b=9+s so
b=12
So the speed of the boat is 12mph and the stream is 3 mph
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
See Discussion section below
Discussion:
2x^2 + 5x + 3 = (2x+3)(x+1) which is Choice 3
3x^2+10x+4 =-1/3 (-3 x + sqrt(13) - 5) (3 x + sqrt(13) + 5)
I don't think any of the provided choices are right!
8x^2+10x-3 = (2x+3)(4x-1) which is Choice 2
6x^2-7x-4 = -1/24 (-12 x + sqrt(145) + 7) (12 x + sqrt(145) - 7)
I don't think any of the provided choices are right!
2x^2+x-28 = (2x-7)(x+4) which is Choice 2
Thank you,
MrB
(2x-3)(5x-1). I Think that is the answer.
