You decide to enter in a rowing competition. To train, you go to the boat house and begin rolling down stream. You row for the s

fredd [130]

Answer:

Time spent rowing down stream $=100\ seconds$

Speed of boat in still water $=14\ ms^{-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat in still water be $= x\ ms^{-1}$

Speed of current $= 10\ ms^{-1}$

Speed of boat down stream = $\textrm{Speed of boat in still water +Speed of current}= (x+10)\ ms^{-1}$

Distance rowed down stream = 2400 m

Time spent rowing down stream = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{2400}{x+10}\ s$ = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{2400}{x+10}\ s$

Speed of boat up stream = $\textrm{Speed of boat in still water -Speed of current}= (x-10)\ ms^{-1}$

Distance rowed up stream = $\frac{1}{6} \textrm{ of distance rowed downstream}=\frac{1}{6}\times 2400 = 400\ m$

Time spent rowing up stream = $\frac{Distance}{Speed}=\frac{400}{x-10}\ s$

We know that,

$\textrm{Time spent rowing down stream =Time spent rowing up stream}$

So,

$\frac{2400}{x+10}=\frac{400}{x-10}$

Cross multiplying

$2400(x-10)=400(x+10)$

Dividing both sides by $400$

$\frac{2400(x-10)}{400}=\frac{400(x+10)}{400}$

$6(x-10)=x+10$

$6x-60=x+10$

Adding 60 to both sides.

$6x-60+60=x+10+60$

$6x=x+70$

Subtracting both sides by $x$

$6x-x=x+70-x$

$5x=70$

Dividing both sides by 5.

$\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{70}{5}$

∴ $x=14$

Speed of boat in still water $=14\ ms^-1$

Time spent rowing down stream = $\frac{2400}{14+10}=\frac{2400}{24}=100\ s$

3.) mr. smith’s class sold wrapping paper for $3.50 each and mr. davis’ class sold magazines for $2.75 each. together, the class

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of wrapping paper sold

y ----> the number of magazines sold

we know that

The classes sold 72 items

$x+y=72$ ----> equation A

The classes earned $222 for their school

$3.50x+2.75y=222$ ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is (32,40)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

Big Brothers, Inc. borrows $267,999 from the bank at 18.16 percent per year, compounded annually, to purchase new machinery. Thi

Katyanochek1 [597]

Based on the amount borrowed and the interest per year, Big Brothers, Inc will pay an annual payment of $59,973.15.

<h3>How much will Big Brothers, Inc. pay annually?</h3>

This can be found by using the present value of an annuity formula because the annual payment will be constant and therefore like an annuity.

Formula is:

Present value of annuity = Annual payment x ( 1 - (1 + rate) ^ -number of periods) / rate

Solving gives:

267,999 = Amount x ( 1 - ( 1 + 18.16%)⁻¹⁰) / 18.16%

267,999 = Amount x 4.46865

Amount = 267,999 / 4.46865

= $59,973.15
