2+1=3
I hope this helped! :)
In this item, it is assumed that since the pattern is cut out of the paper which is usually a rectangle then, the shape of the pattern is also rectangle. The perimeter of the rectangle is,
P = 2L + 2W
The area is equal to,
Area = L x W
If we assume that length and width are equal, in order to maximize the space.
1600 cm² = L x L
The value of L from the equation is 40 cm.
X is the Scale factor so 18/6=X
X=3
Another way to check. the work is 6 x 3 = 18
Hope this Helped. :)
Answer: the speed of the current is 0.6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
James is kayaking. He can row 3 mph in still water. If he can travel 6 miles downstream. Assuming he went with the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 + x)
Time = distance/speed
Time taken to travel downstream is
6/(3 + x)
In the same amount of time, he can travel 4 miles upstream. Assuming he went against the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 - x). Time taken to travel upstream is
4/(3 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
6/(3 + x) = 4/(3 - x)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
6(3 - x) = 4(3 + x)
18 - 6x = 12 + 4x
4x + 6x = 18 - 12
10x = 6
x = 6/10
x = 0.6 mph
