A fisherman travels downstream at full speed to his favorite fishing spot. The stream is running at a rate of 5 miles per hour,

and he takes an hour to get to the fishing hole. He catches 5 fish and calls it a day. He takes twice as long at full speed to get back to the dock going against the current. How fast will his fishing boat go?

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y − 1 = 4(x + 3) and passes through the point (4, 32)?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The equation for the given line is y − 1 = 4(x + 3). Let us convert this equation in slope intercept form y= mx +b, where m is slope and b is the y-intercept. Thus, the slope of this line is 4.Now, we know that the slope of parallel lines are equal. Hence, the slope of the required line is same as the slope of the given line. Hence, the slope of the required line is m = 4It passes through the point (4,32).The point slope form of a line is given by Therefore the equation of the line is y = 4x+16,D is the correct option.

The area of square: s · s = s²

The area of rectangle: (s + 6) · s = s(s + 6)

So:

s² + s(s + 6) = 56

s² + s(s + 6) - 56 = 0

h= 12/pi OR 3.81972

Step-by-step explanation:

100= \frac{1}{3}5^{2}h

100= \frac{1}{3}\pi 25h

100= \frac{25\pi h}{3}

The score on a trivia game is obtained by subtracting the number of incorrect answer from twice the number of correct answer. If
brilliants [131]

Answer:

The player answer correctly 30 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to develop the information that gives us as 2 equations

x = correct answer

y = incorrect answer

z = score = 40

h = total answer = 50

2x - y = z               x + y = h

2x - y = 40             x + y = 50

we clear the x of one equation and replace the value of x in the other equation

x = 50 - y

2x - y = 40

2(50 - y) - y = 40

100 - 2y - y = 40

-3y = 40 -100

y = -60/-3

y = 20

x = 50 - y

x = 50 - 20

x = 30
