Let b and s be the velocity of the boat and stream respectively....
3(b-s)=27
b-s=9
b=9+s we will use this in the second equation....
2(b+s)=30
b+s=15, now use b found above in this to get:
9+s+s=15
2s+9=15
2s=6
s=3, and since from earlier b-s=9, b=9+s so
b=12
So the speed of the boat is 12mph and the stream is 3 mph
<u> Equation:</u>
x(x - 5) + 3(x + 5)
<u>Steps:</u>
x(x - 5) + 3(x + 5)
<u>Expand:</u>
x(x - 5 ): x^2 - 5x
x^2 - 5x + 3(x + 5)
<u>Expand:</u>
3(x + 5): 3x + 15
x^2 - 5x + 3x + 15
<u>Add Similar Elements: </u>
-5x + 3x
= -2x
Answer x^2 - 2x + 15 Doesn't Factor
Hope that helps!!! : )
Answer:
most graphs don't go passed 10 so it's undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
A book is sold in Belize for 80.39 Belize dollars.
In Brazil, it sells for 63.65 Brazilian reals.
The exchange rate of US Dollars to Belize Dollars is 1:1.9246
<span>The exchange rate of US Dollars to Brazilian Real is 1:1.7880
</span>
If we convert the two into dollars,
Belize Dollars
1 : 1.9246 = X : <span>80.39
1.9246X = 80.39
X = $ 41.77
</span>Brazilian Real
1 : 1.7880 = X : 63.65 <span>
</span>1.7880X = 63.65 <span>
X = $ 35.60
</span>
Difference = $ 41.77 - $ 35.60
Difference = $ 6.17
<span>So, in Belize the book is more expensive by $ 6.17</span>
