Answer:

a) 15-t mph;

b) 15+t mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) When the boat travels​ upstream, the current hinders the boat (the speed of the boat decreases). Thus, the speed of the boat upstream becomes

15-t mph.

b) When the boat travels​ downstream, the current helps the boat (the speed of the boat increases). Thus, the speed of the boat downstream becomes

15+t mph.

A triangular plot of land has one side along a straight road measuring 294 feet. a second side makes a 63degrees angle with the​
creativ13 [48]
The side across from the 63° angle is 299.5 ft and the side across from the 56° angle is 278.7 ft.

We will use the Law of Sines to solve this.  First, the angle across from the 63° angle:
sin 61/294 = sin 63/x

Cross multiply:
x*sin 61 = 294 sin 63

Divide by sin 61:
(x sin 61)/(sin 61) = (294 sin 63)/(sin 61)
x = 299.5

For the side across from the 56° angle:
sin 61/294 = sin 56/x

Cross multiply:
x*sin 61 = 294 sin 56

Divide both sides by sin 61:
(x sin 61)/(sin 61) = (294 sin 56)/(sin 61)
x = 278.7
