Speed= distance/time, speed =60/5, speed=12. because the river is travelling with a current of 5mph which takes 5mph off the speed, so the still water speed = 12+5 =17mph
Speed=17 mph

What is the equation that passes through the given point and has the given slope (-2, -1); m= -3
klemol [59]

Answer:

y = - 3x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 3, then

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, - 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = 6 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 6 = - 7

y = - 3x - 7 ← equation of line

Using the chart above, find the total amount and amount of interest paid in the following compound interest problems.
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Annually: Total Amount = 1611.76, Interest Amount = 711.76

Semiannually: Total Amount = 1625.50 , Interest Amount = 725.50

Quarterly: Total Amount = 1632.62 , Interest Amount = 732.62

Step by Step Explanation:

We can see from the table that the factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded annually is 1.7908477. Therefore, our total amount is 1.7908477*900 = 1611.76 and interest earned is 1611.76-900 = 711.76.

The factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded semiannually is 1.8061112. Therefore, our total amount is 1.8061112*900 = 1625.50 and interest earned is 1625.50-900 = 725.50.

The factor that we need to multiply with 900 in order to get amount for compounded semiannually is 1.8140184. Therefore, our total amount is 1.8140184*900 = 1632.62 and interest earned is 1632.62-900 = 732.62.

What are the x-intercepts and the y-intercepts of the graph of 12x−3y=36
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12x −3y=36  ⇔ 3y = 12x - 36

                          y = 4x - 12

y = 0 ⇔ 4x - 12 = 0 ⇔ 4x = 12 ⇔ x = 12/4 = 3

So (0 ; - 12) and (3 ; 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant - 8  at the end of function g(x) suggests the parent function f(x) was translated 8 units down.
