The speed of the current is 7 miles per
hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let × represent speed of the current.
We have been given that a motorboat
maintained a constant speed of 11 miles per
hour relative to the water in going 18 miles
upstream and then returning.
The speed of motorboat while going
upstream would be 11
The speed of motorboat while going
downstream would be 11 + 2

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a prism is given by the product of the base and the height. In this triangular prism, the area of the either base is:
The height is marked as 
inches. Thus, the volume of the prism is:
7500(1+0.032)5=
1.032 to the power of 5= 1.171
7500x 1.171=8,782
To graph a situation that would involve a linear graph, first determine your x and y axes.
The x-axis will be the independent variable, one that does not change based on other variables. An example is time.
The y-axis, the dependent variable, depends on the independent variable.
The model equation for a linear line is y = mx + b.
"m" is the slope, and the "b" is the y-intercept (where the graph crosses the x-axis at x=0).
For example, a situtation could be that Joe starts with $10 in his account and adds $5 every day to his account.
The x-axis is time in days.
The y-axis is amount of money in his account.
The slope, or rate of change is 5.
The y-intercept, the amount of money he has at x=0 (0 days) is $10.
The equation would be y = 5x + 10
To draw this, plot the y-intercept at (0, 10), and the next point would be 5 units up and one unit to the right because the slope is 5, or 5/1 (remember slope is rise over run: "rise" up 5 and "over" to the right 1).
Answer:
Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the given line.
For example, if a given line has the slope 3/2, the the perpendicular line would have the slope -2/3.
For the given line: y = 4x - 7, the perpendicular line would have a slope of -1/4
There isn't enough info in the question to determine the y-intercept. Literally, any y-intercept could work and the line would still be perpendicular. Is the line supposed to pass through a certain point?
Your answer would be something like: y = -1/4 x + b
b is the y-intercept...if your question paper is multiple choice, choose the answer with the slope of -1/4. If it's supposed to pass through a certain point (x,y) replace x and y with the values in that point and solve for b to get the y-intercept.
