<u>Question 1 solution:</u>
You have two unknowns here:
Let the Water current speed = W
Let Rita's average speed = R
We are given <em>two </em>situations, where we can form <em>two equations</em>, and therefore solve for the <em>two unknowns, W, R</em>:
Part 1) W→ , R←(against current, upstream)
If Rita is paddling at 2mi/hr against the current, this means that the current is trying to slow her down. If you look at the direction of the water, it is "opposing" Rita, it is "opposite", therefore, our equation must have a negative sign for water<span>:
</span>R–W=2 - equation 1
Part 2) W→ , R<span>→</span>(with current)
Therefore, R+W=3 - equation 2
From equation 1, W=R-2,
Substitute into equation 2.
R+(R–2)=3
2R=5
R=5/2mi/hr
So when W=0 (still), R=5/2mi/hr
Finding the water speed using the same rearranging and substituting process:
1... R=2+W
2... (2+W)+W=3
2W=1
W=1/2mi/hr
Answer:
x-6 = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 8= -2
Add 8 to each side
3x - 8+8= -2+8
3x = 6
Divide by 3
3x/3 = 6/2
x =2
We want to find x-6
2-6 = -4
Answer:
+140.68 m/h
Step-by-step explanation:

Hello there,
Okay so the question is asking us to subtract the two mixed numbers, 6 3/5 - 2 4/5, from each other...
The first step would be to change the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
- 6 3/5 as improper fraction would be 33/5
- 2 4/5 as improper fraction would be 14/5
Now we need to make sure that the denominators are the same and in this case they are.
Simply subtract 14 from 33 and you would get 19 and the denominator stays the same so you would get 19/5.
- Now turn 19/5 into a mixed number and you would get 3 4/5
The answer to the 6 3/5 - 2 4/5 would be 3 4/5.
Hope I helped,
Amna
Answer:
67
Step-by-step explanation:
● -(x + 3) + (y - 5) + (z - 6)
● -x - 3 + y - 5 + z - 6
● (-x + y + z) + (3 -5 -6)
● 75 + 3 - 11
● 78 - 11
● 67
