Answer: x=4.25
Step-by-step explanation:
-30=4-8x
subtract 4 from both sides
-8x=-34
divide by -8 on both sides
x=4.25
-2(x - 3) = 5(2x + 3)
-2x + 6 = 10x + 15
6 = 10x + 15 + 2
6 = 12x + 15
6 - 15 = 12x
-9 = 12x
-9/12 = x
-3/4 = x or in decimal form; -0.75
hope this helps, God bless!
Consider this option:
1. if to re-write the condition, it is given: total time t=8 hours; upstream=downstream=6 miles; V_boat=4 m/h., V_current=V=?
2. note, that total time=time_upstream+time_downstream, where time_upstream=6miles/(V_boat-V) and time_downstream=6miles/(V_boat+V). Using this it is possible to make up and solve the following equation:

answer: √10
P.S. the roots of the equation are √10 and (-√10), only positive values is needed for V.
The total surface area of a cylinder is given by the formula

Given diameter, d=12meters, we will solve for radius

The height is given as 9meters
Substituting for r and h in the formula will give


Hence the surface area of the cylinder is 565.2m²
