The speed of current will be "4.5 mph" and the rate Pratap can row in still water will be "8.5 mph".
What does "speed" mean in mathematics?
- Speed is what it means. the speed of a change in an object's location in any direction.
- Speed is defined as the ratio of distance to the amount of time it took to cover that distance.
- Speed is a scalar quantity because it just has a direction and no magnitude.
Given:
Distance "26 miles" in time "2 hours".
Let,
Speed of water = y
Pratap speed when rowing in still water = x
As we know,
Speed = distance/time
then,
x + y = 26/2
x + y = 13
x = 13 - y
In return trip took him time "6.5 hours",
x - y = 26/6.5
x - y = 4
By substituting the value of "x", we get
13 - y - y = 4
13 - 2y = 4
2y = 13 - 4
2y = 9
y = 9/4 = 4.5 mph (Rate of the current)
By substituting the value of "y", we get
x = 13 - a
x = 13 - 4. 5 = 8.5 mph (Pratap can row in still water)

Answer: He had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1. Ok, so we need to see how many times 9 will divide into 18.
18/9=2.
Step 2. So now that we know that 9 goes into 18 two times and we know he has two fumbles for every 9 touchdowns we can multiply 2 by 2 to find out how man fumbles he had.
2*2=4
Step 3. Now to find out how many more touchdowns than fumbles he had we need to subtract his fumbles from his touchdowns.
18-4= 14. So, now we know he had 14 more touchdowns than he did fumbles.
Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is :-
x and w : Dr. Alpha was meeting up with this patient in the library.
Know why:-
Because x and w are Vertically Opposite Angles! And they are always same!
They are each multiplied by a factor of 3.5
You can calculate this by taking the length of the similar prism and divide it with the first prism 14.7/4.2 = 3.5
Do this with the width and height to be sure
20.3/5.8 = 3.5
33.6/9.6 = 3.5
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Since angle KLJ~angle VWU are similar :
KL / WV = KJ/ UV
(25 / 20) = (4x - 23 / 2x + 2)
Cross multiply :
25(2x + 2) = 20(4x - 23)
50x + 50 = 80x - 460
50x - 80x = - 460 - 50
-30x = -510
x = 510 / 30
x = 17
