Yes, -4 4/5 would be below 4 2/5
Speed of the boat = u
speed of the current = v
in downstream,
u - v = 105/5
u - v = 21
in upstream
u + v = 105/7
u + v = 15
add both equations
2u = 36
u = 18
v = -3
so
speed of the boat = 18 km/h
speed of the current = 3 km/h
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
slope is rise/run
to get from -1 to 5 is 6 points
y axis to 1 is 1 point
6/1=6
Answer:
9 hours, 20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
When two ferries work together, they transport a day's cargo in 7 hours
The speed proportion or ratio of larger ferry to smaller ferry is given as 3 : 1
The sum of the ratio = 4 (3 + 1)
This means that it will take the smaller ferry = 7 x 4 hours to work alone = 28 hours, since the larger ferry is faster by 3.
Therefore, when larger ferry works alone, it will take it (7 x 4)/3 = 9.33 hours.
9.33 hours = 9 hours, 20 minutes.
