<u>Question 1 solution:</u>
You have two unknowns here:
Let the Water current speed = W
Let Rita's average speed = R
We are given <em>two </em>situations, where we can form <em>two equations</em>, and therefore solve for the <em>two unknowns, W, R</em>:
Part 1) W→ , R←(against current, upstream)
If Rita is paddling at 2mi/hr against the current, this means that the current is trying to slow her down. If you look at the direction of the water, it is "opposing" Rita, it is "opposite", therefore, our equation must have a negative sign for water<span>:
</span>R–W=2 - equation 1
Part 2) W→ , R<span>→</span>(with current)
Therefore, R+W=3 - equation 2
From equation 1, W=R-2,
Substitute into equation 2.
R+(R–2)=3
2R=5
R=5/2mi/hr
So when W=0 (still), R=5/2mi/hr
Finding the water speed using the same rearranging and substituting process:
1... R=2+W
2... (2+W)+W=3
2W=1
W=1/2mi/hr

Answer:

Explanation:
<u>1. Volume of a cup</u>
The shape of the cup is a cylinder. The volume of a cylinder is:

The diameter fo the cup is half the diameter: 2in/2 = 1in.
Substitute radius = 1 in, and height = 4 in in the formula for the volume of a cylinder:

<u>2. Volume of the sink:</u>
The volume of the sink is 1072in³ (note the units is in³ and not in).
<u>3. Divide the volume of the sink by the volume of the cup.</u>
This gives the number of cups that contain a volume equal to the volume of the sink:
