Answer:

Correct answer:  Vsub = 5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

t₁ = 2 h

Va = 25 mph

t₂ = 9 h

d = 280 mile

distance traveled by aircraft carrier  for time t₂ = 9 h

d₃ = Va · t₂ = 25 · 9 = 225 miles

the total distance traveled by the submarine

d₁ + d₂ = 280 - 225 = 55 miles

d₁ + d₂ = Vsub · t₁ + Vsub · t₂ = Vsub · ( t₁ + t₂ ) = 55

Vsub · ( t₁ + t₂ ) = 55  ⇒  Vsub = 55 / 2 + 9 = 55 / 11 = 5 mph

Vsub = 5 mph

God is with you!!!

guys I need help with this problem. I've tried solving it but everything I do is wrong please help me and explain what you did.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

This is incorrect because when you seperate both equations, the 7/x flips to x/7. x times x does not cancel out, and the correct division gives you x²/21

Step-by-step explanation:

(x/3)/(7/x)

(x/3) ÷ (7/x)

(x/3) × x/7

x²/21
