Answer:

20 km/hr

Explanation:

time taken by the boat going upstream = 11 hours

time taken for downstream movement = 9 hours

speed of the current = 2 km/h

distance traveled by the boat = d

Assume the speed of boat be x

we know,

distance =  speed × time

moving upstream

distance = speed × time

            d  = (x -2) × 11

downstream

             d = (x+2) × 9

now  

       (x+2) × 9 = (x -2) × 11

              2 x = 40

                 x = 20 km/hr

hence, the speed of the boat will be 20 km/hr

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Mr Dunbar is using the tool of Association.

Explanation:

In psychology, Association simply refers to the practice of linking two or more information for ease of recall. This is the way the human brain is wired to recall.

Every information in the mind is an organisation of associated ideas, occurrences, things and so on.

So to help students learn and remember faster, good teachers use the power of association to help them recall easily.

For example, do you remember the song  "Do-Re-Mi" from Sound of Music?

That song teaches one how to memorize the music sofa in a fun and easy to recall way using imagery and association.

Cheers!

What lesson do you learn from the story the address?

The lesson do you learn from the story the address

The Address by Marga Minco centres on the idea of crisis, which each of us faces on a daily basis.

Humans are impacted by war in many different ways by the death, suffering, and destruction it causes.

The narrator and his mother's life, however, are disrupted by the war in this novel.

It is true that Marga Minco's "

The Address" is an uplifting tale that adequately illuminates the value of letting go.

It emphasises once more that the present is all we have and that the past and future are only illusions.
