                              time       *      rate          =       distance

Downstream           4           *       x              =          4(x)

Upstream                6           *     x - 2           =        6(x - 2)

distance downstream = distance upstream:

                              4(x) = 6(x - 2)

                               4x  = 6x - 12

                              -2x  =   -12

                                 x   =    6

Distance Upstream: 4x   = 4(6)   = 24

Distance Upstream: 6(x - 2)  = 6(6 - 2)   = 6(4)   = 24

Total distance traveled is Upstream + Downstream = 24 + 24 = 48

Answer: 48 miles

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x)=\dfrac{1}{3}3^x

g(x)=2x+4

For f(x) to be true, the domain is given by observing the graph of two i.e. x\in (-1.981,3.117). In this range g(x) is greater than f(x).

From the above domain largest integer that can satisfy the condition is 3.
