Let
x--------> <span>the speed of the boat in mph
we know that
</span>going upstream the speed is x-7
<span>going downstream the speed is x+7
</span>
let the distance be d
<span>time to go upstream = d/(x-7) </span>
<span>time to go downstream = d/(x+7)
</span>
time going upstream is 3 times going downstream
so
<span>3d/(x+7) = d/(x-7) </span>
<span>divide by d </span>
<span>3/(x+7) = 1/(x-7) </span>
<span>3x-21 = x+7 </span>
<span>2x = 28 </span>
<span>x = 14
</span>
the answer is
<span>the speed of the boat in still water is 14 mph</span>
Answer:
Let width = w
length = 4w/3
Area = 432 = length*width = w*4w/3
4w^2/3 = 432
w^2 = 432*3/4 = 324
w = 18
so the width of the cake pan is 18 inches.

Answer:
WORK For Exercises 44 and 45, use the information below and in the graph. Andrea works in a restaurant and is paid every two weeks. If Andrea earns $ 6.50 an hour, illustrate the Distributive Property by writing two expressions representing Andrea's pay last week.
In short, (h o g)(a) is just h( g(a) ).
so what we can do is simply get g(a) first and then plug that in h(x).
