Hi! This problem be set up with a ratio or fraction. 12/.333 = x/.75
Cross multiply
9=.333x
divide by .333 on each side
giving you x=27
There are 27 grams of sugar in a 3/4 piece of candy
Answer:
Rate in still water = 27.5 mph
Current's rate = 12.5 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x mph = row team rate in still water
y mph = current's rate
<u>Upstream:</u>
Distance = 30 miles
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x - y mph
Then

<u>Downstream:</u>
Distance = 30 miles
Time = 45 minutes
hour
Rate = x + y mph
Then

From the first equation:

From the second equation:

Add these two equations:

Subtract these two equations:

15)
an exterior angle equals the sum of the remote interior angles
<span>so
m<XYT = m<X + m<Z
4x - 25 = x + 15 + 50 - 3x
4x - 25 = -2x + 65
6x = 90
x = 15
answer
x = 15
