Going upstream: 432 km / 6 hours = 72 km/h
Going downstream: 384 km / 4 hours = 96 km/h
Going upstream against the current means that the effective speed is:
r_boat - r_current = 72
Meanwhile, going downstream with the current means;
r_boat + r_current = 96
Adding both equations (to cancel out r_current) gives:
2r_boat = 72 + 96
r_boat = 84 km/h
Substituting back into one of the original equations: r_current = 12 km/h.

Solve the whole problem i give brainliest please help me.

Answer:

165 is greater than or equal to 17.75x+5.25; 9 is greater than or equal to x

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that they have no more than $165. This means that they either use all the money, or they have leftover money, which means you need to use the 'greater than or equal to' sign. It says that tickets are $17.75 a person, and we're trying to find the number of people (x). You can write this as 17.75x. There is also a parking fee to add on to the equation, which is represented as +5.25. Now, we can solve!

I'm going to use an equal sign to replace the inequality symbol, but make sure to add the symbol at the end of the problem.

165=17.75x+5.25

159.75=17.75x

9=x

Our final answer is 9 is greater than or equal to x. Hope this helps!
