86 feet

Assuming the court is rectangular in shape then

area = length × width

length = area / width = $\frac{1032}{12}$ = 86 feet

A boat travels 33 miles downstream in 4 hours. The return trip takes the boat 7 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water

Paha777 [63]

<u>Answer:</u>

Speed of the boat in still water = 6.125 miles/hour

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given that a boat travels 33 miles downstream in 4 hours and the return trip takes the boat 7 hours.

We are to find the speed of the boat in the still water.

Assuming $S_b$ to be the speed of the boat in still water and $S_w$ to be the speed of the water.

The speeds of the boat add up when the boat and water travel in the same direction.

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$S_b+S_w=\frac{d}{t_1}=\frac{33 miles}{4 hours}$

And the speed of the water is subtracted from the speed of the boat when the boat is moving upstream.

$S_b-S_w=\frac{d}{t_2}=\frac{33 miles}{7 hours}$

Adding the two equations to get:

$S_b+S_w=\frac{d}{t_1}$

+ $S_b-S_w=\frac{d}{t_2}$

___________________________

$2S_b=\frac{d}{t_1} +\frac{d}{t_2}$

Solving this equation for $S_b$ and substituting the given values for $d,t_1, t_2$ :

$S_b=\frac{(t_1+t_2)d}{2t_1t_2}$

$S_b=\frac{(4 hour + 7hour)33 mi}{2(4hour)(7hour)}$

$S_b=\frac{(11 hour)(33mi)}{56hour^2}$

$S_b=6.125 mi/hr$

Therefore, the speed of the boat in still water is 6.125 miles/hour.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1.25 minutes, or 1 minute 15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that is speed is 0.4 pages per 0.5 minutes. This is 0.8 pages per 1 minute. If we divide 1/0.8, we get 1.25 or 1 minute 15 seconds.
