Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (2, 4) has the x intercept = 2 and y intercept = 4.

A horizontal line has a slope of 0, therefore every point on a horizontal line has the same value and a slope of 0.

So to find the equation of the horizontal line, we use the value of y intercept which can be written in the form y = b where point is (a, b).

Since the point given here is (2, 4), therefore the equation of the horizontal line which passes through it will be y = 4.

A boat crew rowed 10.5 miles downstream, with the current, in 1.5 hours. the return trip upstream , against the current , covere

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The speed of the boat is 5 miles per hours

The speed of the current is 2 miles per hours .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by boat downstream = D = 10.5 miles

The time taken by boat to cover D distance = T = 1.5 hours

The distance cover by boat Upstream = d = 10.5 miles

The time taken by boat to cover d distance = t = 3.5 hours

Let The speed of boat = x mph

Let The speed of current = mph

Now, According to question

∵ Speed = $\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

For Downstream

x + y = $\dfrac{D}{T}$

Or, x + y = $\dfrac{10.5}{1.5}$

Or, x + y = 7 .......A

For Upstream

x - y = $\dfrac{d}{t}$

Or, x - y = $\dfrac{10.5}{3.5}$

Or, x - y = 3 .......B

Now, Solving eq A and eq B

So, (x + y) + (x - y) = 7 + 3

Or, (x + x) + (y - y) = 10

Or, 2 x + 0 = 10

∴ x = $\dfrac{10}{2}$

i.e x = 5 mph

So, The speed of the boat = x = 5 miles per hours

Put the value of x into eq A

∵ x + y = 7

Or, 5 + y = 7

∴ y = 7 - 5

i.e y = 2 mph

So, The speed of the current = y = 2 miles per hours

Hence, The speed of the boat is 5 miles per hours and The speed of the current is 2 miles per hours . Answer

How do you solve this In this case 1422 = 5534/(1+r)^4

Sever21 [200]

It is okay to take the inverse of both side given that you remember to exclude the value that make the denominator zero which is in this case r=-1

What does it mean to evaluate an expression in math?

Ymorist [56]

It mainly means 'simplifying an expression down to a single numerical value', I believe.
