<span>going downstream - 

t = 14/(2 + v) 

going upstream - 

t = 7/(2 - v) 

14/(2 + v) = 7/(2 - v) 

(2 + v)/2 = 2 - v 

v = 2/3km/h</span><span>

Write 77.5% as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The answer is  77\frac{1}{2} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

77.5%.

Now, to write as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.

77.5%

So, we divide by 10 by removing decimal as decimal is at tenth place.

= \frac{775}{10}

So, simplifying it:

=\frac{155}{2}

Now, we change into mixed fraction:

=77\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the answer is 77\frac{1}{2} .

-3z+8=2z-12 what is the answer?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

-3a + 8 = 2z + -12

Reorder the terms:

8 + -3a = 2z + -12

Reorder the terms:

8 + -3a = -12 + 2z

Solving

8 + -3a = -12 + 2z

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-8' to each side of the equation.

8 + -8 + -3a = -12 + -8 + 2z

Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0

0 + -3a = -12 + -8 + 2z

-3a = -12 + -8 + 2z

Combine like terms: -12 + -8 = -20

-3a = -20 + 2z

Divide each side by '-3'.

a = 6.666666667 + -0.6666666667z

Simplifying

a = 6.666666667 + -0.6666666667z

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is 20° less than the sum of the base angles. Which system of equations can be used to
WINSTONCH [101]

The answer to the above question can be explained as under -

We know that, the sum of angles of triangle is 180°.

So, vertex angle plus base angles are equal are equal to 180°.

Let the vertex angle be represented by "v" and base angles be represented by "b".

Thus,  v + b + b = 180°

So,  v + 2b = 180°

Next, the question says, the vertex angle is 20° less than the sum of base angles.

Thus, 2b - 20° = v

<u>Thus, we can conclude that the correct option is A) v + 2b = 180°, 2b - 20° = v</u>
