Answer:

Speed of boat in still water is  14 km/hr and speed of current is 8 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed of down stream = 22 km/h

Average speed of up stream = 6 km/hr

Consider the speed of boat in still water be  x km/hr and speed of current be  y  km/hr

As such speed of down stream would be  x + y km/hr and speed of down stream would be  x - y km/hr. i.e

x+y = 22

x-y = 6

by solving these two equation, we get

2x=28

x=14 km/hr

y=16-13

y=8 km/hr

Hence, the speed of boat in still water is  14 km/hr and speed of current is 8 km/hr

Given fx) = 17- x2, what is the average rate of change in f(x) over the interval [1, 5]?
Andrei [34K]

Let [a, b] = the interval

The average rate of change can be found by using [f(b) - f(a)]/(b - a).

Let a = 1 and b = 5.

Let R = rate of change

17- x^2

R = [17 - 5^2] - [17 - 1^2]/(5 - 1)

R = [17 - 25] -[17 - 1]/4

R = [(-8) - (16)]/4

R = (-24)/4

R = -6

Done.

Given f(x) and g(x) = k·f(x), use the graph to determine the value of k.<br> g(x)
djyliett [7]
<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The diagram for this exercise is attached below. We have two linear functions f(x) \ and \ g(x) and the following relationship:

g(x) = kf(x)

From the graph, we know that:

f(-3)=1 \\ \\ g(-3)=-3

Then, substituting into the relationship:

g(-3)=kf(-3) \\ \\ -3=k(1) \\ \\ \\ Finally: \\ \\ \boxed{k=-3}
