Answer:

Upstream 18mph              Downstream  36 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Upstream DATA:

distance = 180 miles ; time = 10 hrs ; rate = 180/10= 18 mph

-----

Downstream DATA:

distance = 180 miles ; time = 5 hrs ; rate = 180/5= 36 mph

------

Equation:

Upstream: b - c = 18 mph

Downstream: b + c = 36 mph

Now solve for "b"

solve for "c"

Give the value of x .<br><br> A. 60 degrees<br> B. 180 degrees<br> C. 120 degrees<br> D. 45 degrees
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

x=120°

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of all angles in a triangle is equal to 180

let the unknown angle be

\alpha

60 + 60 +  \alpha  = 180 \\  \alpha  = 180 - 60 - 60 \\  \alpha  = 60 \\

\alpha  + x = 180 \\ x = 180 -  \alpha  \\ x = 180 - 60 \\ x = 120
