I believe it is 4.5mph because traveling upstream and the stream moves at a speed of 4mph would knock off 4 of the original number so if you add 4miles to the given 5 miles you get 9

The same is with the boat going downstream it is adding 4 miles to the original number so you subtract 13 and 4 and you get 9

If it took 2 hours to do that then you divide 9 by 2 and get 4.5

What are the steps to solve d=1/e + 1/f for e ?
konstantin123 [22]

Solve for e

d = 1/e + 1/f

Move 1/f to the left side of the = sign

d - 1/f = 1/e

Multiply each side by e

e(d - 1/f) =  e(1/e)

e(d - 1/f) = 1

Divide out (d - 1/f)

e(d - 1/f) / (d - 1/f) = 1 / (d - 1/f)

e = 1 / (d - 1/f)

I need help on what the area of the shape is because they didn’t tell us how to find it
Leto [7]

Answer:

The area of the shape (trapezoid) is 55 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to get the area of a trapezoid is ((b_{1} +b_{2} )/2)*h . b1 is one of the bases, b2 is the other and h is the height.

First, you need to find the average of the bases:

          (15+7=22)/2=11

Then, you multiply that by the height.

          11*5=55

Lastly, you add the units.

          55 square feet is the answer
