The sun has orbited along time so when they ask theses questions I give you the right answer I think lol
In this item, we let x be the rate of the boat in still water and y be the rate of the current.
Upstream. When the boat is going upstream, the speed in still water is deducted by the speed of the current because the boat goes against the water. The distance covered is calculated by multiplying the number of hours and the speed.
(x - y)(3) = 144
Downstream. The speed of the boat going downstream is equal to x + y because the boat goes with the current.
(x + y)(2) = 144
The system of linear equations we can use to solve for x is,
3x - 3y = 144
2x + 2y = 144
We use either elimination or substitution.
We solve for the y of the first equation in terms of x,
y = -(144 - 3x)/3
Substitute this to the second equation,
2x + 2(-1)(144 - 3x)/3 = 144
The value of x from the equation is 60
<em>ANSWER: 60 km/h</em>
Answer:
lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73
The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82
Explanation:
Beta decay occurs when a neutron emits an electron and an anti neutrino from the atomic nucleus, therefore the atomic number of the material increases by one unit.
Pb + e + ν → Bi
lead with Z = 82 is transformed into Bismuth with Z = 73
In alpha decay, a helium nucleus is emitted from the nucleus of the atom, therefore the atomic number decreases by two units.
Po +α → Pb
The Po with Z = 84 becomes Pb with Z = 82
Light from other stars take longer to reach the earth because they are farther than our sun.
