First, convert 2 hours into minutes. You know that there are 60 minutes in 1 hour. Thus, 2 hours = 120 minutes.

Set a ratio to solve for x, the number of pages Tim can read in 2 hours (120 minutes). The numerator represents the number of pages read, and the denominator represents the amount of time elapsed.

\frac{x}{48}=\frac{100}{120}

Use the cross-multiplying method, where you multiply x by 120 and 48 by 100.

120x = 4800

To isolate x, divide both sides of the equation by 120.

The answer is x = 40.

Therefore, Tim can read 40 pages in 48 minutes.


Hope this helps! :)

A motorboat, that has speed of 10 km/hour in still water, left a pier traveling against the current of the river. Forty-five min
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

2 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

  • distance = speed × time
  • time = distance/speed

Let c represent the speed of the current of the river in km/h. Then the speed of the boat upstream is (10-c). In 3/4 hour, the distance traveled upstream is ...

... distance upstream = (3/4)·(10 -c)

The time taken to travel the same distance downstream is given as 3 hours. The speed in that direction is c, so we have ...

... 3 = distance upstream/c = (3/4)(10 -c)/c

Multiplying this equation by 4c, we get ...

... 12c = 3(10 -c)

... 15c = 30 . . . . . . . . add 3c

... c = 2 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 15

The speed of the river current is 2 km/h.
