Answer:
The top speed of William's boat was 45 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x -----> represent the rate of the boat in still water in mph
we know that
The speed or rate is equal to divide the distance by the time
speed=distance /time
time=distance/speed
<em>Downstream</em>
speed=(30+x) mph
distance=10 mi
time1=10/(30+x)
<em>Upstream</em>
speed=(x-30) mph
distance=2 mi
time2=2/(x-30)
The sum of the time downstream plus the time upstream must be equal to 16 minutes
Convert minutes to hours
Multiply by (x+30)(x-30) both sides
Multiply by 60 both sides
Divide by 16 both sides
The solution is x=45\ mph
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
5^2 + b^2 = 13^2
25 + b^2 = 169
169-25= 144
take the square root of 144
answer: 12
The way you add 4 digit numbers is by taking each place value and adding them each together. One's get added with ones, tens get added with tens and so on. For example, to add 1864+7528, you would first start off with adding 4 and 8 which gives you 12. The 2 will go under the equation and the 1 will travel to the tens place. Next, 2+6 which is 8 and then add the 1 from 12 which gives you 9. Then, 8+5 which is 13. Again, the 3 will go under the equation and the 1 will travel to the thousands place. Finally, 7+1 which is 8 and then add the 1 from 13 which gives you 9. The sum should be 9392.
