The speed of the current is 7 miles per
hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let × represent speed of the current.
We have been given that a motorboat
maintained a constant speed of 11 miles per
hour relative to the water in going 18 miles
upstream and then returning.
The speed of motorboat while going
upstream would be 11
The speed of motorboat while going
downstream would be 11 + 2
Time
Distance
Speed
It is 2.56 because per pound equals the amount
Answer:
the correct answer is (b).........
Answer:
2 (3 - 7 r)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
-4 (3 r - 2) - 2 (r + 1)
-4 (3 r - 2) = 8 - 12 r:
8 - 12 r - 2 (r + 1)
-2 (r + 1) = -2 r - 2:
-12 r + -2 r - 2 + 8
Grouping like terms, -2 r - 12 r - 2 + 8 = (8 - 2) + (-12 r - 2 r):
(8 - 2) + (-12 r - 2 r)
-12 r - 2 r = -14 r:
-14 r + (8 - 2)
8 - 2 = 6:
6 - 14 r
Factor 2 out of 6 - 14 r:
Answer: 2 (3 - 7 r)
