X miles per hour - <span> speed of the boat in still water
(x - 2) - speed up the river
(x + 2) - speed down the river
</span>
=
30 * (x + 2) = 38 * (x - 2)
30x + 60 = 38x - 76
- 8x = - 136
x =
17 miles per hour - <span>
the speed of the boat in still water.</span>
Let x= cucumber plants
5x= tomato plants
6x+7= pepper plants
peppers = 19
therefore
6x+7=19
subtract 7 from both sides
6x= 12
divide both sides by 6
x=2
replace the x with 2
2= cucumber plants
10= tomato plants
hope this helps
Answer:
1 2/4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 doubled is 
Now, 
on simplification.
Therefore,
3/4 doubled is 1 2/4
Answer: Choice B) The expression (10-2x)(30-2x)x represents the volume of the box
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
The original width is 10 inches. The width reduces to 10-2x inches after we cut off the top two corners of the rectangle. We can think of it as taking 10 and subtracting off two copies of x like so: 10-x-x = 10-2x
Similarly, the length goes from 30 inches to 30-2x inches. This time we're taking off the top and bottom corners (focus on either side it doesn't matter).
The height of the box is x inches due to this portion being folded up.
Volume of box = (width)*(length)*(height)
Volume of box = (10-2x)(30-2x)x
Note: the units for the answer are in cubic inches which can be written as "in^3" (inches cubed).
Answer:
Width of the rectangle = 15 inches
Length of the rectangle = 25 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle = k inches
So, the length of the rectangle = (2k -5) inches
Perimeter = 80 in
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (Length + Width)
⇒ 80 = 2(k + (2k -5)
or 80 = 6k - 10
⇒ 6k = 80 + 10 = 90
or k = 90 / 6
⇒ k = 15
So the width of the rectangle = k = 15 inches
And the length of the rectangle = 2k -5 = 2 x 25 - 5 = 25 inches
