Answer:

The speed is still water is v = \frac{d}{h} - c.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimentionally speaking, speed is distance divided by time. Since, the person is travelling downstream, absolute speed is equal to the sum of current speed and speed of the person regarding current. Both components are constant. That is:

c + v = \frac{d}{h}

Where:

c - Current speed, measured in miles per hour.

v - Speed of the person regarding current, measured in miles per hour.

d - Distance travelled downstream, measured in miles.

h - Time spent on travelling, measured in hours.

Speed in still water occurs when current speed is zero. Then, such variable is obtained after subtracting current speed on both sides of the expression. Hence:

v = \frac{d}{h} - c

The speed is still water is v = \frac{d}{h} - c.

Derek has a bank account that pays 2.1% simple interest. The balance is $910. When will the account grow to $1,000?
swat32

Answer:

The account will grow to 1,000 in 5 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the account will become 1000, the interest is 90 dollars. I=p*r*t.

90=910*.021*t

90=19.11*t.

t=4.71, so it will take 5 whole years.

PLEASE HELP, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT!!!! (08.06 MC) Mike and his friends bought cheese wafers for $2 per packet and choc
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

x = 5 , y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using substitution.

Let the quantity of cheese wafers be denoted by x and the quantity of chocolate wafers denoted by y

2x + 1y = 25

x + y = 20

These two equations are the answer to part A, (remember to include the above prompt which says what x and y denote).

For part B I used substitution because it was more applicable to the question then addition or elimination.

ACTUAL WORK

Set 2x + 1y = 25 equal to x

x = 25 - y / 2

Replace x with y in the second equation

(25 - y / 2) + y = 20

And solve for y

y = 15

Since we know what y is we can replace y in the second equation and find what x is

x + 15 = 20

Solve for x

x = 5

Answer:

V = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Comment

I think you should try this one yourself after I post my answer. Estimation is a very valuable tool -- the more you use it, the handier it gets.

Formulas

pi = 3

V = 4/3 * pi * r^3

Givens

r = 2

pi = 3

Solution

V  = 4/3 * pi * r^3                     Substitute values for symbols

V = 4/3 * 3 * 2^3                      Cancel the 3s

V = 4 * 2^3                               Expand the 2s

V = 4 * 2 * 2 * 2                       Find V

V = 32
