Let c represent the speed of the current.
time = distance/speed
Upriver, the current is subtracted from the canoe speed; downriver, it adds.
6 = 32/(12 -c) +32/(12 +c)
6(12² -c²) = 32(12 +c) +32(12 -c) . . . . . multiply by (12 +c)(12 -c)
0 = 6c² -96 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the left side
96/6 = c² . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 96, divide by 6
4 = c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
The rate of the current is 4 mph.
Answer:
5 remainder 4
25/5=5 and you have 4 left
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is
If you put in the numbers you get
This comes to 1056. So the answer is 1056 in^2
8/3 cups or 2 2/3
2/3 × 4/1 = 8/3
if u divide 3 into 8 it gives u 2 times with 2 places left
the 2 places equal 2/3
2 whole OR 6/3 + 2/3 = 8/3 OR 2 and 2/3
