Answer:
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Step-by-step explanation:
speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
let the rate in still water be x and rate of the current be y.
speed down the river is:
speed=distance/time
speed=14/2=7 mi/h
speed up the river is:
speed=(14)/(3.5)=4 mi/hr
thus total speed downstream and upstream will be:
x+y=7...i
x-y=4.......ii
adding the above equations i and ii we get:
2x=11
x=5.5 mi/hr
thus
y=5-5.5=1.5 mi/r
thus the speed in still waters is 5.5 mi/hr
speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
B) -23 because a double negative is a positive so it’s -35 + 12 which is -23
Answer:
x=3, solution is not extraneous
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Solve for x
squared both sides


<u><em>Verify</em></u>
For x=3



-----> is true
therefore
x=3, solution is not extraneous
in 3.4653, there is one digit to the left of the decimal point, that is the ones position
in 34.653, there are 2 numbers to the left of the decimal point, the 3 is located in the tens place
so 34.653 is greater than 3.4653
