Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x−2)=9

Divide both sides by 3.

x-2=9/3

Divide 9 by 3 to get 3.

x−2=3

Add 2 to both sides.

x=3+2

Add 3 and 2 to get 5.

x=5

Traveling with the current, a boat covers a distance 1.5 times greater than traveling against the current in the same amount of

jeka94

Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.

b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c

The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
