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

Sara makes and sells bracelets. She bought material for $28.50 and used it all to make 15 bracelets. Sara used the equation to d
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Sara should sell each bracelet at <em>$8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following:

Total cost = $28.50

Total bracelets to be made = 15

Total profit to be made = $99

Let x be the price at which Sara sells each bracelet to make a profit of $99.

\text{Total sales done = Number of bracelets sold }\times \text{ Sales price of each bracelet}\\

\Rightarrow 15 \times x    ...... (1)

Also,

\text{Total sales price = Total Cost}+ \text{Total Profit} \\

\Rightarrow \$28.50 + \$99 ....... (2)

Equating (1) and (2):

\Rightarrow  28.50 + 99 = 15x\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{127.5}{15}\\\Rightarrow x = $8.50

Sara should <em>sell each bracelet at $8.50</em> to make a profit of $99.

Answer:

f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3 for x \le -3

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for proper question

Given

f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}

For

x \ge -3

Required

Determine the inverse function

f(x) = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}

Replace f(x) with y

y = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{x + 3}

Swap the positions of x and y

x = -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{y + 3}

Multiply both sides by -2

-2 * x =-2 *  -\frac{1}{2}\sqrt{y + 3}

-2x =\sqrt{y + 3}

Square both sides

(-2x)^2 =(\sqrt{y + 3})^2

4x^2 =y + 3

Make y the subject

y = 4x^2 - 3

The inverse has been solved. So, we need to replace y with f'(x)

f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3

Next, is to determine the interval

x \ge -3

Change inequality to \le

x \le -3

Hence, the inverse function is:

f'(x) = 4x^2 - 3 for x \le -3
