Okay. For these types of problems, you must do order of operations (PEMDAS). Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. Mind you that you do these steps from left to right, and multiplication and division is done from left to right. Same thing with addition and subtraction. With that being said, here are your answers if you do the expressions correctly.
1. 12
2. 106
3. 42
Answer:
i = -7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
(-3/4 + 4/3) + i = 0
(-9/12 + 16/12) + i = 0
7/12 + i = 0
i = -7/12

w=4
h=3
6*4*3 = 72
Hope this helps.
Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
For a kayak speed of k miles per hour in still water, the speed upstream is (k-2) and the speed downstream is (k+2). Over the distances given, the times are the same, so we can write ...
10/(k-2) = 14/(k+2)
Multiplying by (k+2)(k-2) gives ...
10(k+2) = 14(k -2)
10k +20 = 14k -28 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
48 = 4k . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 28-10k
12 = k
Then the time for 28 miles downstream is ...
time = 28 / (12 +2) = 2 . . . . hours
It will take the person 2 hours to kayak 28 miles downstream.
