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.

If A line has a y -intercept of 10 and a slope of 4 . What is its equation in slope -intercept form
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

<h2>          y = 10x + 4</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b, where <em>m</em> is a slope and<em> b</em> is y-intercept.

m = 10

b = 4

So, the equation:  y = 10x + 4

I need help with this question
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

C. No, because there is an input value that has two different output values.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is a relation in which the members of the domain (x-values) DO NOT repeat. So, for every x-value there is only one y-value that corresponds to it. y-values can be repeated. x-values can NOT be repeated.
