Lily swims for 5 hours in stream that has a current of 1 mph. She leaves her dock, swims upstream for 2 miles and then swim back

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Swimming speed in still water is approximately 1.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the speed of the current = 1 mph

distance she swims upstream =2 miles,

the total time = 5 hours.

She swam 2 miles upstream against the current and 2 miles back to the dock with the current. The formula that relates distance, time, and rate is $d = r t\ \ \ \ or \ \ \ t= \frac{d}{r}$

Let x be the speed in still water.

Then her speed with the current is x + 1, and

her speed against the current is x – 1.

Total time is equal to 2 miles with upstream and 2 miles downstream.

$\frac{2}{x+1}+\frac{2}{x-1}=5\\\\\frac{2(x-1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}+\frac{2(x+1)}{(x-1)(x+1)}=5\\\\\frac{2x-2}{(x^2-1)}+\frac{2x+2)}{(x^2-1)}=5\\\\\frac{2x-2+2x+2)}{(x^2-1)}=5\\\\4x=5(x^2-1)\\4x= 5x^2-5\\0= 5x^2-4x-5$

Now Using quadratic formula to solve above equation we get;

$x= \frac{-b \±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}} {2a}\\\\here \ \ a= 5,b=-4,c=-5\\\\x= \frac{-(-4) \±\sqrt{(-4)^2-4\times 5\times-5}} {2\times5}\\\\x=\frac{4 \±\sqrt{16+100}} {10}\\\\x=\frac{4 \±\sqrt{116}} {10}=x=\frac{4 \±2\sqrt{29}} {10}= x=\frac{2 \±\sqrt{29}} {5}\\ x \approx 1.5 \ or \ x = -0.7$

Since speed must be positive, Hence speed of still water is about 1.5 miles per hour.

The Punic Wars began in 264 B.C. and ended in 146 B.C. How long did the Punic Wars last??

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The first two wars were long—23 years and 17 years, separated by an interval of 23 years. The third war lasted nearly three years. It started 52 years after the end of the second war. All three wars were won by Rome, which subsequently emerged as the greatest military power in the Mediterranean Sea.

Wendy is standing 60 feet away from a tree. Her eyes are 5 feet above the ground. She sees a bird hovering above a tree. The ang

Gennadij [26K]

The bird is 17 feet above the tree.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We need to think of this in terms of right triangles. If Wendy is 60 feet from a tree, the base of the right triangle is 60 feet. The height of the tree is the height of the right triangle. The angle of elevation is the one from the ground at her feet to the top of the tree and then to the bird. Let's start with the top of the tree first.

She's 60 feet away, we have the angle of elevation as 25 degrees, and we are looking for the height of the tree. In regards to the angle, the base of 60 is adjacent, and the height of the tree is opposite. The tangent ratio is height / base.

Let x be the height of the tree.

So,

$tan (25) = \frac{x}{60}$

$60 tan(25) = x\\\\x = 27.9 feet$

x is approximately 28 feet

Since, Wendy's eyes are 5 feet above the ground, the height of the tree becomes

28 + 5 = 33 feet

<u>For bird</u>

Let y be the height of the bird in the air

$tan(37) = \frac{y}{60} \\\\60 tan(37) = y\\\\y = 45.2 feet$

y is approximately 45 feet

Since, Wendy's eyes are 5 feet above the ground, the height of the tree becomes

45 + 5 = 50 feet

To know how far above the tree that bird is

50 - 33 = 17 feet

Therefore, the bird is 17 feet above the tree.
