I’m pretty sure the answer is 40 miles because the fisherman can row 5mph up stream and he can go 20m in 4h and he can go back down stream 10mph and go 20 miles in half the time (2h) he can row upstream. Hope this helps.

"a coin purse contains coins with values of 1 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents, 25 cents, and 50 cents. using each coin at least once, wh
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

  11 coins for $1.99

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum total less than $2 is $1.99. It takes 11 coins to make that total. It would take 1 fewer if the nickel were not required.

Starting with the minimum required coins, which total $0.91, we need to add $1.08 using a minimum number of coins. To minimize the added coins, we start with the largest we can use without going over the total: 2×50¢ + 1×5¢ + 3×1¢. These 6 coins added to the required 5 coins give the desired total using 11 coins.

  11 coins: $1.99 . . . . (3×50¢ +1×25¢ +1×10¢ +2×5¢ +4×1¢)

$1.99 is the highest possible total less than $2.00, and it takes a minimum of 11 coins to make that total.

An electrician bought 120 feet of electrical wire and used 105 feet of it. What percent of the wire went unused? 15% 12. 5% 8. 7
Yuri [45]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

105 is what percent of 120?

you can use this proportion:

if/of = %/100

in this problem:

is = 105

of = 120

'what percent' = p/100

105/120 = p/100

cross-multiply to get:

120p = 10500

p = 10500/120

p = 87.5

So the electrician used 87.5%, out of 100%, meaning 12.5% went unused

First,let's find the slope-intercept form of equation which is y=mx+b, where y and x are coordinates, m is the slope and ,c is the y-intercept
y+6.75=0.25(x-1)                                                   y=0.25(2)-6.5
y+6.75-6.75=0.25x -0.25 -6.75                            y=-6
y=0.25x-6.5   
(2,-6)  is the only correct answer I think is on the line with this equation.
