Answer:
Where Is the picture?
Step-by-step explanation:
When the coefficient of a term is 1 or -1, we don't write it, we just use the + or - sign. The coefficient of the c term is -1, because of the - sign in front of it and the lack of written coefficient. Any questions?
Answer:37
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 2_5/8 minus 1_1/3:
First, get the fractions to have a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together: 8*3 = 24
Rewrite both fractions with this new denominator:
5/8 needs to be multiplied by 3 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
5/8 * 3/3 = 15/24
1/3 needs to be multiplied by 8 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
1/3 * 8/8 = 8/24
Now that the fractions have been rewritten with the same denominator, subtract the mixed numbers:
2_15/24 - 1_8/24
Whole numbers:
2 - 1 = 1
Fractions:
15/24 - 8/24 = 7/24.

Answer:
- boat: 6 mph
- current: 2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...
speed = distance/time
For boat speed b and current speed c, the speed downstream is ...
b +c = (16 mi)/(2 h) = 8 mi/h
The speed upstream is ...
b -c = (16 mi)/(4 h) = 4 mi/h
Adding the two equations eliminates the c term:
2b = 12 mi/h
b = 6 mi/h . . . . . divide by 2
Solving the second equation for c, we get ...
c = b -4 mi/h = 6 mi/h -4 mi/h = 2 mi/h
The speed of the boat in still water is 6 mi/h; the current is 2 mi/h.
