<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:
26 2/3 yards,
Step-by-step explanation:
First convert 3 1/3 to an improper fraction:
3 1/3 = (3*3 + 1) / 3 = 10 /3.
So for 8 quilts we need (10/3) * 8
= 80/3
= 26 2/3 yards,
Answer: See figure 2 in the diagram below for the table.
==========================================================
Explanation:
The steps are fairly lengthy to explain in words, but the process is fairly straightforward. Start with figure 1 in the diagram below. The letters A through O represent the steps you'll take to replace them. For instance, you'll replace A with 219 since that's the grand total. Then B is replaced with 137 since we're told that 137 girls were surveyed. Then C gets replaced with 219-137 = 82, and so on. Use arithmetic (adding and subtracting) to gradually replace each letter with the proper number as figure 2 shows. The alphabetical order directly corresponds to the order in which the values are given by your teacher (eg: 219 is first, then 137 next, and so on).
Let me know if you get stuck on any one step, or need me to go into more detail.
