The answer is no (all you do it plug in the point that correspond with the x and y, in the equation
Two angles are supplementary when they <span>add up to 180 degrees.
x = </span><span>smaller angle
</span>2x+3 =<span> larger angle
x + 2x + 3 = 180
3x = 180 - 3
3x = 177
x = 177/3
x = 59</span>° ← smaller angle
2x + 3 = 2*59 + 3 = 121° ← larger angle
Find the MPH of the boat when it goes upstream... 3h / 6m = 1h / 2m
So, 2mph
Speed of the boat - current = 2mph - > x - y = 2
Find the MPH of the boat going downstream... 3h / 18m = 1h / 6m
So, 6mph
x + y = 6
We now have a system of equation, let's solve it!
x - y = 2 -> x = y + 2
x + y = 6 - > (y + 2) + y = 6 -> 2y + 2 = 6 -> 2y = 4 -> y = 2
This is the speed of the current!
Subtitute y = 2 in the first equation:
x - 2 = 2
x = 4
This is the speed of the boat
Rate of the current = 2mph
Rate of the boat in still water = 4mph
Answer:
141 baskets
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the total amount of money and divide by the cost per basket
3256/23
141.5652174
Since we cannot buy part of a basket, round down
141 baskets
