Dup= 72 miles 
<span>ddown= 120 miles </span>
<span>v= riverspeed </span>
<span>rup= 32mph - v </span>
<span>rdown= 32mph + v </span>
<span>t both ways= t </span>

<span>d=r*t </span>
<span>d/r=t </span>

<span>t=ddown/rdown </span>
<span>t=dup/rup </span>

<span>dup/rup = ddown/rdown </span>

<span>(72)/(32-v)=(120)/(32+v) </span>
<span>3840-120v=2304+72v </span>
<span>1536=192v </span>
<span>v=8</span>

What is the answer to this problem above?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Value of f (Parapedicular) = 7√6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Given triangle is a right angle triangle

Value of base = 7√2

Angle made by base and hypotenuse = 60°

Find:

Value of f (Parapedicular)

Computation:

Using trigonometry application

Tanθ = Parapedicular / Base

Tan60 = Parapedicular / 7√2

√3 = Parapedicular / 7√2

Value of f (Parapedicular) = 7√2 x √3

Value of f (Parapedicular) = 7√6

What's The Answer??????????????????
Yuri [45]
f(x) =  \dfrac{x}{2} - 2

g(x) = 2x^2 + x - 3

(f + g)(x) =  \dfrac{x}{2} - 2+ 2x^2 + x - 3

(f + g)(x) = 2x^2 + \dfrac{3}{2}x - 5
