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.

(3) The difference between two numbers is 8. If the larger is
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

x= 62

y= 54

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the numbers be x and y and the larger be x the smaller be y

The difference between two numbers is 8

x-y= 8-----------1

If the larger is  subtracted from three times the smaller, the difference is 100

3y-x=100------------2

from eqn 1, x= 8+y

put this in eqn 2

3y-(8+y)=100

3y-8-y=100

collect liker terms

3y-y-8=100

2y=108

y= 54

put y= 54 in eqn 1

x-y=8

x-54= 8

x= 8+54

x=62

A boat that costs $8550 decreases in value by 12% per year. How much will the boat be worth after 3 years?
erastovalidia [21]
You have to take $8,550 times 0.12 (12%) to find out the number it is being decreased by.
8,550 x 0.12 = 1,026
And then, you have to subtract 1,026 from 8,550 three times for three years and your answer becomes 5,472.
$5,472

Len [333]

X=2

Y=4

Multiply top so y values cancel out, so multiple top by -3. Y values cancel out. You combine top and bottom equations, x=2. Plug 2 in first equation for x. Y=4
