A boat travels 30 miles upstream in 5 hours. The return trip downstream takes 3 hours. If the boat travels at the same rate on b
oth parts of the trip, what is the rate of the current, in miles per hour?
1 answer:
5/30-x = 10/30+x
5(30+x) = 10(30-x)
150+5x = 300-10x
5x+10x=300-150
15x = 150
x= 10 mph

Answer:
f(x)=4×-2,g(x)=2(x)+8
h(x)=f(x)+g(x)
solution:
h(x)=f(x)+g(x)
=4x-2+2x+8
4x+2x=8+2
6x=10
6x/6=10/6
x=5/3
