Answer:

x > -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x + 12 < 18

Subtract the 12 from both sides and you'll get:

-3x < 6

Divide by -3

x > -2

You flip the sign when you mulitply by a negative number

Hopefully this helps, sorry if it doesn't

It takes 3 hours to paddle a kayak 12 miles downstream and 4 hours for the return trip upstream. Find the rate of the kayak in s
Furkat [3]

The rate of the kayak in still water is 3.5 mph

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that It takes 3 hours to paddle a kayak 12 miles downstream

Distance covered in downstream = 12 miles

Time taken to cover downstream = 3 hours

Also given that it takes 4 hours for the return trip upstream

Distance covered in upstream = 12 miles

Time taken to cover upstream = 4 hours

<em><u>Formula to remember:</u></em>

If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then: Speed downstream = (u + v) km/hr and Speed upstream = (u - v) km/hr

Let the speed of Kayak in still water = x mph

And The speed of current = y mph

For downstream:

Speed downstream = x + y

We know that speed = \frac{distance}{time}

\frac{distance}{time} = x + y

x + y = \frac{12}{3}

x + y = 4  ------ eqn 1

<em><u>For upstream:</u></em>

Speed upstream = x - y

\frac{12}{4} = x - y

x - y = 3 -------- eqn 2

Now let us eqn 1 and eqn 2

Add eqn 1 and eqn 2

x + y + x - y = 4 + 3

2x = 7

x = 3.5

speed of Kayak in still water = x mph  = 3.5 mph

|-3 + 15| what is the sum (answer) ? I think it is 12 but my friend thinks it is 18. Who is right?
Aliun [14]
I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

Ron Finley is a gardener who decided a few years ago to plant several gardens in South Central Los Angeles. He wants his next ga
yaroslaw [1]

Well, we can be sure that whatever the width is, we can call it ' W '. Then, from information in the question, the length of the garden is ' 3W '.

Now, the perimeter of a rectangle is (length + width + length + width). Using the fancy algebra labels I just gave them, that's (3W + W + 3W + W). And now I can go through that, add up all the Ws, and get a total of 8W for the perimeter.

But he question tells us that the perimeter is 24 yards, so 8W = 24 yds.

Divide each side of that equation by 8, and we discover that W = 3 yds. And if THAT's true, then 3W = 9 yds. Bada bing ! We have the dimensions of the garden.

It's 3 yards wide and 9 yards long.
