Sun, a kayaker, paddles 8 miles upstream (against the current) in 2 hours. Returning to her original location, she paddles downs

tream (with the current) the same distance in 1 hour. The equations represent x, the paddling speed, and y, the speed of the current.2(x – y) = a

We calculate both velocities:
upstream 8 miles in 2 hours = 4 miles / hour
downstream 8 miles in 1 hour = 8 miles / hour

ps -stream speed = 4 mph
ps + stream speed = 8 mph
Adding both equations
2 ps = 12 mph
paddling speed = 6 mph
stream speed = 2 mph

Relationship B has a greater rate than Relationship A. This graph represents Relationship A.
tester [92]

Answer:

Rate in relationship A = (6 - 3)/(8 - 4) = 3/4 = 0.75

For Table A: Rate = (3 - 1.2)/(5 - 2) = 1.8/3 = 0.6

For table B: Rate = (3.5 - 1.4)/(5 - 2) = 2.1/3 = 0.7

For table C: Rate = (4 - 1.6)/(5 - 2) = 2.4/3 = 0.8

For table D: Rate = (2 - 1.5)/(4 - 3) = 0.5/1 = 0.5

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

What’s the answer?and how do you get it
Kay [80]

the solid is made up of 2 regular octagons, 8 sides, joined up by 8 rectangles, one on each side towards the other octagonal face.

from the figure, we can see that the apothem is 5 for the octagons, and since each side is 3 cm long, the perimeter of one octagon is 3*8 = 24.

the standing up sides are simply rectangles of 8x3.

if we can just get the area of all those ten figures, and sum them up, that'd be the area of the solid.

\bf \textit{area of a regular polygon}\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{2}ap~~ \begin{cases} a=apothem\\ p=perimeter\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=5\\ p=24 \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{2}(5)(24)\implies \stackrel{\textit{just for one octagon}}{A=60} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{two octagon's area}}{2(60)}~~+~~\stackrel{\textit{eight rectangle's area}}{8(3\cdot 8)}\implies 120+192\implies 312

PLEASE ANSWER ASAP
Vlada [557]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

For an inverse function you take f(x) and turn that to y then you switch x and y. So you should start off with y= 5x -8. so then you switch x and y so x= 5y - 8. So then you solve. You subtract 8 from both sides and divide by 5 and you get F(x) inverse = x + 8/5
