Answer:
<em>The rate of the boat is 75.17 km/h and the rate of the stream is 17.83 km/h</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Let's call:
B = speed (rate) of the boat in still water
S = speed (rate) of the stream
The boat travels 172 km in 3 hours when going upstream, that is when the speed of the stream subtracts its own speed. The speed is the distance divided by the time, thus:
Multiplying by 3:
3B - 3S = 172 [1]
The boat travels 372 km in 4 hours downstream when the speed of the current adds to its own:
B + S = 93
Solving for B:
B = 93 - S [2]
Substituting in [1]
3(93 - S) - 3S = 172
Operating:
279 - 3S - 3S = 172
279 - 6S = 172
Subtracting 279:
- 6S = 172 - 279
- 6S = -107
Multiplying by -1 and solving for S:
From [2]:
Answer:
<h2> Tim spent $60.60 for his lunch.</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
The tip is 20% of what he paid for lunch. Hence
tip = 20% of 50.50 = (20/100)*50.50 = 101/100 = $10.10
Total spent
50.50 + 10.10 = $60.60
So hence, Tim spent $60.60 for his lunch.
