Answer:
52 feet apart
Step-by-step explanation:
20 + 32 = 52
Let the boat speed in still water be b.
Let the current speed be c.
The speed going upstream is 20/4 = 5 mph.
The speed going downstream is 32/4 = 8 mph.
b - c = 5 ........(1)
b + c = 8 .......(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:
2b = 13
b = 13/2 = 6.5
Plugging in the value for b into equation (1) we find c = 1.5.
The boat speed in still water is 6.5 mph and the current speed is 1.5 mph.
For the question the answer is a
Answer:
y=0, x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-3y= -6 ...... equation 1
y =2x+2 ..... equation 2
subtract 2x from both sides
y-2x=2x-2x+2
y-2x=2
6x-3y= -6
y-2x=2
Rearrange
6x-3y= -6 ........x1
-2x +y=2............x3
6x-3y= -6
-6x +3y=2
0y=0
y=0
substitute y=0 in equation 1
6x-3xo= -6
6x= -6
x-6/6
x = -1
