Answer:

The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

distance with current = 90 miles

distance against current = 10 miles

speed in still water = s

speed of current = 4 mph

speed with current = s + 4

speed against current = s - 4

time = t

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

With current:

90 = (s + 4) * t

Against the current:

10 = (s - 4) * t

We have a system of equations:

90 = (s + 4) * t

10 = (s - 4) * t

90 = ts + 4t

10 = ts - 4t

Subtract the second equation from the first equation.

80 = 8t

10 = t

t = 10

10 = t(s - 4)

10 = 10(s - 4)

1 = s - 4

s = 5

Answer: The speed in still water is 5 miles per hour.

Answer : w = (-36)
By transposition method -6 when transposed to the other side it becomes multiplication which will be w = 6*(-6)
= w = (-36)

Which choices are equivalent to the fraction below? check all that apply 16/36
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

\frac{16}{36} = \frac{8}{18} = \frac{4}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/4.5}{36/4.5} = \frac{3.5555}{8} \neq  \frac{3}{8} \\\\\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/12}{36/12} = \frac{1.3333}{3} \neq  \frac{1}{3} \\\\\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/9}{36/9} = \frac{1.7777}{4} \neq  \frac{1}{4} \\\\\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/4}{36/4} = \frac{4}{9} \\\\\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/7.2}{36/7.2} = \frac{2,2222}{5} \neq  \frac{2}{5} \\\\\frac{16}{36} = \frac{16/2}{36/2} = \frac{8}{18} \\\\

What is the goal in solving an equation?
Lelechka [254]

Your answer is, get the variable by itself.

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

<h3><u>What is an equation?</u></h3>

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =

<h3><u>3 types of equations</u></h3>
  • slope-intercept form
  • point-slope form
  • standard form

Thus, <u>option a</u> is your answer.
