Answer:
x= 7.5 mile/h
y= 3.5 miles / h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x and y
so, x+y = speed down river
and x-y= speed up river
using
travel time = distance / speed for each case;
we get;
22/x+y=2 ---(1)
and
22/x-y=5.5 -----(2)
Solving equations simultaneously
eq 1 gives
2x+2y=22 ---(3)
eq 2 gives
5.5x-5.5y=22 ----(4)
Multiply eq 3 by 2.75
==> 5.5x+5.5y=60.5 --- (5)
adding eq 4 with eq 5
==> 11x =82.5
==> x= 7.5 miles/h
put this value in eq 3
==> 2(7.5)+2y=22
==> 2y=22-19.8
==> 2y=7
==> y = 3.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
15.5-3.5=12. this is how many hours he has worked already.
12/1⅓=9. this is because how many hours he has worked per how many hours he worked per day to show how many days he worked
the answer is 9 days.
12hours * 1day/1⅓ hours
^^ignore that if it doesn't make sense, but basically the hours will cancel and you'd be left with days as your only unit to show why you would divide 12 by 1⅓
hope this helped!
