A motorboat heads upstream a certain distance and returns to its starting point. The trip up and back

Mathematics

Answer:

67.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the distance one way, then the time it takes when moving with the current is:

x = 15 t₁

The time it takes when moving against the current is:

x = 5 t₂

The total time is 9 hours:

t₁ + t₂ = 9

Substituting:

x/15 + x/5 = 9

4x/15 = 9

4x = 135

2x = 67.5

The total distance round trip is 67.5 miles.

The coordinates of points M,N, and P are ....
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

(-1, -1) Let me know if the explanation didn't make sense.  

Step-by-step explanation:

If we graph the three points we can see what looks like a quadrilateral's upper right portion, so we need a point in the lower left.  This means M is only connected to N here and P is only connected to N.  So we want to find the slope of these two lines.

MN is easy since their y values are the same, the slope is 0.

NP we just use the slope formula so (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (-1-3)/(5-4) = -4.

So now we want a line from point M with a slope of -4 to intersect with a line from point P with a slope of 0.  To find these lines  weuse point slope form  for those two points.  The formula for point slope form is y - y1 = m(x-x1)

y-3 = -4(x+2) -> y = -4x-5

y+1 = 0(x-5) -> y = -1

So now we want these two to intersect.  We just set them equal to each other.

-1 = -4x -5 -> -1 = x

So this gives us our x value.  Now we can plug that into either function to find the y value.  This is super easy of we use y = -1 because all y values in this are -1, so the point Q is (-1, -1)

What is the solution 4(x-8) + 10= -10
Sati [7]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

given

4(x - 8) + 10 = - 10 ← subtract 10 from both sides

4(x - 8) = - 20 ← divide both sides by 4

x - 8 = - 5 ← add 8 to both sides

x = 3
