Answer:

after distributive property, it would be 3x+15=5x-7

the next step would be to simplify by moving the variables one side and the numbers the other, -2x= -22, then after isolate variable by dividing -2.

x= 11

Answer: the speed at which Jonathon and Samantha can row in still water is 9 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the canoe in still water.

Let y represent the speed of the river's current.

Jonathon and Samantha row their canoe 28 miles downstream in 2 hours. Assuming they rowed with the current, the total speed would be (x + y) mph

Distance = speed × time

Distance travelled downstream is expressed as

28 = 2(x + y)

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

14 = x + y - - - - - - - -1

After a​ picnic, they row back upstream. After 3 hours they only travel 12 miles. Assuming they rowed against the current, the total speed would be (x - y) mph

Distance travelled upstream is expressed as

12 = 3(x - y)

Dividing through by 3, it becomes

4 = x - y - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

18 = 2y

y = 18/2

y = 9 mph

What is the median of the data?
eimsori [14]
<span>20, 19, 13, 23, 16, 15, 17, 17, 15, 15, 22, 19

</span>To find the Median, place the numbers in value order<span> and find the </span>middle<span>.
</span>
13, 15, 15, 15, 16, 17, 17, 19, 19, 20, 22, 23

There are 12 numbers and so we don't have just one middle number, we have a pair of middle numbers:


13, 15, 15, 15, 16, (17, 17), 19, 19, 20, 22, 23

<span>To find the value halfway between them, add them together and divide by 2:
</span>
17 + 17 = 34
34 ÷ 2 = 17

So the median is A) 17.
