Answer:

  • team: 8 kph
  • current: 4 kph

Step-by-step explanation:

The downstream speed is ...

  speed = distance / time

  speed = 36 km/(3 h) = 12 km/h

The upstream speed is ...

  12 km/(3 h) = 4 km/h

__

If b and c represent the speeds of the boat and current, respectively, then we have ...

  b + c = 12

  b - c = 4

Adding these gives ...

  2b = 16

  b = 8

  c = b -4 = 4

The rate of the rowing team in calm water is 8 km/h; the rate of the current is 4 km/h.

Determine the end behavior for function f(x)=-x^4+5x^3-3
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The dominant term of this function is x^4.  The graph of x^4 starts in Quadrant II and continues in Quadrant I.

If we have y = -x^4, the graph starts in Quadrant III and continues in Quadrant IV.  This is the end behavior for f(x)=-x^4+5x^3-3.

Suppose that g(x) = f(x) + 5. Which statement best compares the graph of
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because your adding 5 to f(x) which would be x not y (pretty sure) and g(x) is y. your not adding 5 to g(x) therefore not b. D and A would never be correct for this because that would be subtraction of 5
