480=60(v+s) 

480=60v+60s

8=v+s

s=8-v...

480=80(v-s)  using s from above we get:

480=80(v-(8-v))

6=v-8+v

6=2v-8

2v=14

v=7, and since s=8-v, s=1

So the rate of the team is 7m/s while the rate of the stream is 1m/s

Which situation could be represented by an exponential function select each correct answer
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The first and third options are the examples of exponential functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a quantity is compounded after a certain interval of time at a certain rate, then we can assume that the situation can be represented by an exponential function.

In the first option:  An event organizer finds each year's attendance for the past five years is about \frac{4}{5} of previous year's attendance.

So, here the total attendance is compounding every year by a factor \frac{4}{5} of previous year's attendance.

Again, in the third case: The total population is increasing by about 7.5% each year.

Hence, the population is compounded every year by 7.5% of the previous year's population.

Therefore, the first and third options are examples of exponential functions. (Answer)
