speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
let the rate in still water be x and rate of the current be y.
speed down the river is:
speed=distance/time
speed=14/2=7 mi/h
speed up the river is:
speed=(14)/(3.5)=4 mi/hr
thus total speed downstream and upstream will be:
x+y=7...i
x-y=4.......ii
adding the above equations i and ii we get:
2x=11
x=5.5 mi/hr
thus
y=5-5.5=1.5 mi/r
thus the speed in still waters is 5.5 mi/hr
speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
4(z) = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Product = the result of multiplication.
The same as = the equal sign.
Answer: x = 83 (x representing the next homework assignment)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the left side of the equation says f(5), then plug in 5 for x.
So, it is:
-4|5| + 3
= -20 + 3
= 23
