Answer:

x= 7.5 mile/h

y= 3.5 miles / h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x and y

so, x+y = speed down river

and x-y= speed up river

using

travel time = distance / speed for each case;

we get;

22/x+y=2  ---(1)

and

22/x-y=5.5 -----(2)

Solving equations simultaneously

eq 1 gives

2x+2y=22  ---(3)

eq 2 gives

5.5x-5.5y=22 ----(4)

Multiply eq 3 by 2.75

==> 5.5x+5.5y=60.5 --- (5)

adding eq 4 with eq 5

==> 11x =82.5

==> x= 7.5 miles/h

put this value in eq 3

==> 2(7.5)+2y=22

==> 2y=22-19.8

==> 2y=7

==> y = 3.5

I just need an expiation for my corrections
devlian [24]
You could simply 21 and 28 both by 7 and when you do that you would get 3 and 4.

since the ratio is Jeanne to Jakes tickets it would be 3:4 or 3/4

final answer should be A

W(x)= -2x -2 what does w(9)=​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

w(9) = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, take the w function and input 9 in for all the x values.

w(x) = -2x - 2

w(9) = -2(9) - 2

w(9) = -18 - 2

w(9) = -20

If f(x) = x^2-2x-24 and g(x) = x^2-x-30, find (f-g)(x).
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

-x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

if f(x) = x^2-2x-24 and g(x) = x^2-x-30, find (f-g)(x).

Do to this, you have to subtract equation g from equation f.

If you write it down and subtract them, your x^2 will cancel out and you will be left with -2x - (-x) and -24 - (-30). This will leave you with -x +6
