D=rt
r=(boatrate+riverrate)=(x+2)mph
d=528ft=528/5280mi=1/10mi
t=1/3hr
remember to keep the same units
so
1/10=(x+2)(1/3)
times both sides by 3
3/10=x+2
minus 2 or 20/10
-17/10=x
-1.7=x
it would be going -1.7mph (means going backwards)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a=-7
r=21/-7=-3
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
7(-2) - 4(1) = -18
-14 - 4 = -18
-18 = -18
TRUE
(-2) + 12(1) = 10
-2 + 12 = 10
10 = 10
TRUE
Answer:
- table: 14, 16, 18
- equation: P = 2n +12
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter values will be ...
rectangles . . . perimeter
1 . . . 14
2 . . . 16
3 . . . 18
__
The perimeter of a figure is twice the sum of the length and width. Here, the length is a constant 6. The width is n, the number of rectangles. So, the perimeter is ...
P = 2(6 +n) = 12 +2n
Your equation is ...
P = 2n +12 . . . . . . . . perimeter P of figure with n rectangles.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
You may be expected to write the equation using y and x for the perimeter and the number of rectangles. That would be ...
y = 2x +12 . . . . . . . . . perimeter y of figure with x rectangles
