X/5 = 24/8
(because the triangles are similar)
x/5 = 3
x = 5*3 = 15 Answer
a/27 = 8/24 = 1/3
a = 9 Answer
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:
B = speed of the boat in still water
C = speed of the current
Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.
How do we find the two equations we need?
Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).
Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)
The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! <u>Distance=(Rate)(Time) </u>Now solve using the systems of equations!
Discount prices/the discount
E.g.the new price of the book is 75 which has a discount of 75%
The original price = 75/0.75=100
Answer: I believe the answer you are looking for is 33 inches of rain.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you will divide 31 days by 14 days as 2 weeks is 14 days. Which will give you 2.2..... Now multiply your crazy decimal by 15 to get 33.214.... Now round that decimal to 33. There's your answer.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form for the equation of a circle is
where r is the radius, and the center is (h, k).
(h, k) = (-1, 2), r = 7
