Let F = the downstream speed of the water.
<span>Then the boat's upstream speed is: 15 - F </span>
<span>The boat's downstream speed is: 15 + F </span>
<span>Assume both the journeys mentioned take T hours, then using "speed x time = distance" we get: </span>
<span>Downstream journey: (15 + F)T = 140 </span>
<span>Upstream journey: (15 - F)T = 35 </span>
<span>Add the two formulae together: </span>
<span>(15 + F)T + (15 - F)T = 140 + 35 </span>
<span>15T + FT + 15T - FT = 175 </span>
<span>30T = 175 </span>
<span>T = 35/6 </span>
<span>Use one of the equations to find F: </span>
<span>(15 + F)T = 140 </span>
<span>15 + F = 140/T </span>
<span>F = 140/T - 15 </span>
<span>F = 140/(35/6) - 15 </span>
<span>F = 24 - 15 </span>
<span>F = 9 </span>
<span>i.e. the downstream speed of the water is 9 kph </span>
<span>Therefore, the boat's speed downstream is 15 + F = 15 + 9 = 24 kph.
the answer is: *24kph*</span>
Answer:
Zero or +2
Explanation:
The noble gases already have a avplete outermost shell. They are the least reactive elements of earth?
Their normal oxidation number is zero but some have been shown to be reactive.
<span>Earth's rotation is the rotation of the planet Earth around its own axis. The Earth rotates from the west towards east. As viewed from North Star or polestar Polaris, the Earth turns counter-clockwise.</span>
