Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
cm/year
cm=34
year=2
34/2=17
2/3
You pick a point and divide the amount you go vertically by the amount you go horizontally to the next point.
X = number of loads
company A : 20x + 8
company B : 24x + 4
20x + 8 = 20(5) + 8 = 100 + 8 = 108 (company A)
24x + 4 = 24(5) + 4 = 120 + 4 = 124 (company B)
company A charges less
20x + 8 = 20(9) + 8 = 188
24x + 4 = 24(9) + 4 = 220
220 - 188 = $ 32 bucks is saved by using company A
Let the speed of the current be x mi/hr
speed upstream=(12-x) mi/hr
speed downstream=(12+x) mi/hr
It takes 3 hours longer to travel upstream than downstream, thus
time taken upstream=68/(12-x)
time taken to travel downstream=68/(12+x)
the difference in time will be:
68/(12-x)-68/(12+x)=3
solving for x we get:
x=2.98 mi/hr
Thus the rate of current is 2.98 mi/hr
Area = length x height divide 2
so = (6x6)/2 - (3x2)
= 12 cm square
