speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
let the rate in still water be x and rate of the current be y.
speed down the river is:
speed=distance/time
speed=14/2=7 mi/h
speed up the river is:
speed=(14)/(3.5)=4 mi/hr
thus total speed downstream and upstream will be:
x+y=7...i
x-y=4.......ii
adding the above equations i and ii we get:
2x=11
x=5.5 mi/hr
thus
y=5-5.5=1.5 mi/r
thus the speed in still waters is 5.5 mi/hr
speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
y = 6 so
2x + 3y = 36y is equal to:
2x + 3*6 = 36*6
-> 2x + 18 = 216
We must now move 18 to the other side of the equation. As we do that, we also change it's sign to negative 18:
2x = 216 - 18
We simplify this
2x = 198
Now, that we got to this point, we know that 2x is equal to 198. To find x we must divide the both sides of the equation by two:
2x/2 = 198/2
And we get that
x = 99

Step-by-step explanation:
Start at the end.
The 5 makes the 7 an 8, which makes the 8 an 9, which makes the 4 a 5.
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
4 = 10 - 3²
4 = 10 - 9
4 = 1
This can be solver by creating a small equation with x being the number and solving for x. The equation would be 8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Solve for x:
8 + 2( x + 3 ) = -6
Distribute the 2
8+ (2x+6)=-6
Subtract 8
2x+6= -14
Add 6
2x= 8
Divide by 2
x=4
So the number you are looking for is 4
I hope this helps!
