Answer:

  • 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of current be x

<u>Speed of the boat in same direction as current is</u>

  • 10 + x

<u>Speed against the current is</u>

  • 10 - x

<u>Based on the given we get the equation for time</u>

  • 6/(10 + x) = 4/(10 - x)

<u>Solving for x</u>

  • 6(10 - x) = 4(10 + x)
  • 60 - 6x = 40 + 4x
  • 6x + 4x = 60 - 40
  • 10x = 20
  • x = 2

The answer is 2 mph

What is the length? In algebra DUE TOMORROW
Mamont248 [21]
The formula for volume is V=lhw, or length times height times weight. To find the length, you divide the volume by the height and width. 

In this case, divide 3,060 first by 12, the height, then by 15, the width.

3,060/12=255
255/15=17

The length is 17.
