Answer:
The rate of the boat in still water is 40 miles per hour
The rate of the current is 10 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The speed or rate is equal to divide the distance by the time
Let
x ----> the rate of the current (miles per hour)
y ----> the rate of the boat in still water (miles per hour)
we have that
<em>going upstream </em>
----> equation A
<em>going downstream </em>
----> equation B
Solve the system of equations by elimination
Adds equation A and equation B
<em>Find the value of x </em>
therefore
The rate of the boat in still water is 40 miles per hour
The rate of the current is 10 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:
because yes i did jajajjaja
The answer is < because 7.1983 * 10^1 =71.983
Percent error : (approximate value - exact value) / exact value.....x 100
percent error : (5.75 - 6.25) / 6.25......ignore any negative signs
0.5 / 6.25 = 0.08.....x 100 = 8% error <==
Answer:
14800
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for simple interest (I) in terms of principal (P), rate (R) and time (T) is given as follows;
I = P x R x T / 100 ------------- (i)
Given:
Principal (P) = Initial amount being put into the account = 10000
Rate (R) = The interest rate being offered by the account manager = 4%
Time (T) = Time taken = 12 years
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows:
I = 10000 x 4 x 12 / 100
I = 4800
Therefore, the initial amount will yield an interest of 4800 for those 12 years.
The total amount the employee will thus have in 12 years will be the sum of the initial amount and the interest. i.e
Amount = P + I
Amount = 10000 + 4800
Amount = 14800
