Answer:

1). Anjali's speed on the outbound trip was 5.1 miles per hour.

2). Speed of the boat was 8.2 km per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

1). Anjali traveled to teh recycling plant in 5.8 hrs and trip back took 5.1 hrs.

Her speed was 7 mph faster on the return trip.

Let her outbound trip speed was = s mph

Then her speed for the return trip will be = (s + 7) mph

Distance traveled to plant = Speed × time

                                           = s×5.8 miles

Distance traveled in the back trip = (s + 7)×5.1 miles

Since distances covered to outbound trip and return trip are same

So,  5.8s = (s + 7)×5.1

      5.8 s = 5.1 s + 7×5.1

      5.8 s - 5.1 s = 35.7

                 0.7 s = 35.7

                       s = \frac{35.7}{0.7}

                          = 5.1 miles per hour

Therefore, Anjali's speed on the outbound trip was 5.1 miles per hour.

2). Let the speed of the ship is s km per hour

Ship traveled for 11 hours so distance covered by the ship = Speed × time = s×11

Since speed of the ship was 12.5 km per hour faster than the boat then

Speed of the boat will be = s - 12.5

Since boat started traveling 0.5 hrs before the ship then total time the boat traveled = 11 + 0.5 = 11.5 hours

Now the distance covered by the boat = (s - 12.5)×11.5

Since distance between the ship and the boat is 322 km so the equation will be

11s + (s - 12.5)11.5 = 322

11s + 11.5s - 12.5×11.5 = 322

22.5s - 143.75 = 322

22.5s = 322 + 143.75

22.5s = 465.75

s = \frac{465.75}{22.5}

  = 20.7 km per hour

Now the speed of the boat will be = (s - 12.5)

                                                         = (20.7 - 12.5)

                                                         = 8.2 km per hour

A]
D=R×t
d=5.8r
d2=5.1(r+7)
0.7r=35.7
r=51 mi/hr
thus the average speed on the outbound trip would be:
51+7=58 mi/hr

b]
let speed of fishing boat=x km/h
speed of cruise ship=(x+12.5) km/h
distance traveled by fishing boat=11.5×x=11.5x km
distance traveled by cruise ship=(x+12.5)×11=(11x+137.5) km
Total distance covered by the ships:
11.5x+11x+137.5=322
22.5x=322-137.5
22.5x=184.5
thus
x=184.5/22.5
x=8.2 km/h
The speed of fishing boat is 8.2 km/hr

Ann [662]
Ratio and Proportions
61:70=ratio of statue

?:22=61:70
?/22=61/70
Move 22 over the equal sign
?=61*22/70
?=1342/70
?=19.1714286 

The tree is 19.1714286m tall
