Answer:
The value for 6 is ones that's the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:
B = speed of the boat in still water
C = speed of the current
Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.
How do we find the two equations we need?
Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).
Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)
The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! <u>Distance=(Rate)(Time) </u>Now solve using the systems of equations!
Since 10 is a positive the opposite must be negative. Opposite integer of 10 is -10 ( negative 10).
Happy studying ^-^
Try this suggested solution, note, 'D' means the region bounded by the triangle according to the condition. It consists of 6 steps.
Answers are underlined with red colour.
Distance traveled should be on y axis
hours should be on x axis
increments should be 5
