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
What they want you to do is make a rough guess (in your head) about what the total cost might be.
You can break it down into smaller numbers to make this easier!
Since you don’t have to be accurate (because it is an ‘estimate’, meaning it’s not exact), let’s round the price to $180. Now, let’s separate $180 into two different parts — $100 and $80. Since there are three people, you can multiply both of those parts by 3; 100x3=300, and 80x3=240. Now, add those two numbers together.
300+240=540. $540 can be your estimate for the total price!
Now, since they want you to find the exact answer afterwards, we’re going to go back in and find the exact answer. I’m not sure if you’re too familiar with multiplication yet, so let’s do it using addition!
179+179=358.
Then, add another 179...
358+179=$537.
So, the exact cost would be $537!
Does that make sense? Your estimate was *close*, but not exact because we rounded 179 up to 180 to make it a little easier. Estimates can be really useful if you have to do math on the fly, and once you go back to get the real exact answer, you’ll know you’re right if they are quite close!
She need 1/12 cup of oil. A fraction is a portion of a whole or, more broadly, any number of equal parts. In everyday English, a fraction describes the number of parts of a specific size, such as one-half, eight-fifths, or three-quarters.
<h3>What is meant by fraction?</h3>
- A fraction is a portion of a whole or, more broadly, any number of equal parts. In everyday English, a fraction describes the number of parts of a specific size, such as one-half, eight-fifths, or three-quarters.
- fraction, A number expressed as a quotient in arithmetic, in which a numerator is divided by a denominator. Both are integers in a simple fraction.
- A complex fraction contains a fraction in either the numerator or the denominator. A proper fraction has a numerator that is less than the denominator. A fraction is a portion of a whole number and a method of dividing a number into equal parts.
<h3>How to find how much cup she want?</h3>
- She needs 1/3 cup of oil
- She have 1/4 cup of oil
To find how much need to obtain 1/3 of cup
we need to subtract what we have from what we need.
so , we have 1/4 and need 1/3
= 1/3 - 1/4
= 
= 1/12
she need 1/12 cup of oil more to make cake.

Andy's equation is incorrect and the correct equation of the line is y + 2= 3/4(x - 3)
<h3>How to determine the equation of the line?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Slope, m = 3/4
Point, (x,y) = (3,-2)
The equation of the line is calculated using:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substitute the known parameters
y + 2= 3/4(x - 3)
From the question;
Andy's equation is y + 2 = 3/4(x - 9/4)
The above equation is different from the actual equation y + 2= 3/4(x - 3)
Hence, Andy's equation is incorrect and the correct equation of the line is y + 2= 3/4(x - 3)
