x - boat speed; y - current speed; Path = 336:2 = 168 miles
1) 12 * (x + y) = 168; -> x + y = 14;
2) 14 * (x - y) = 168; -> x - y = 12;
1) x = 14 - y;
2) (14 - y) - y = 12;
14 - 2y = 12;
2y = 2;
y = 1 mph
x = 14 - 1 = 13 mph
Answer:
Boat speed = 13 mph
Current speed = 1 mph

Answer:
4/6 and 6/15
Step-by-step explanation:
simplify all fractions to lowest possible.
4/6 = 2/3
10/25 = 2/5
6/15 = 2/3
4/6 and 6/15 are equivalent
Answer:
Length, l=450 yards
Width, b=225 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the long side be x and since the length is twice the width, then the width is half of that length hence 0.5x. Since we only have three parts to fence as one long side doesn't require fencing, then the perimeter will be given by x+0.5x+0.5x=2x=900 yards
X=900/2=450 yards for long side.
The short side is 0.5x hence 0.5*450=225 yards
In conclusion, the long side is 450 yards while short side is 225 yards.
