<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:
If the two linear equations have the same slope, the equations represent the same line. Since a line intersects with itself everywhere, there will be an infinite number of solutions.
The mother is older than her daughter by 
years
Step-by-step explanation:
Mother is m years old, and she is four times as old as her daughter.
we need to find how much older the mother is than her daughter
- Put the age of mother equal 4 times the age of daughter
- Find the age of daughter
- Subtract the age of daughter from the age of mother to find how much older the mother than her daughter
∵ The mother's age = m
∵ Her age is four times as old as her daughter
∴ m = 4 × daughter's age
- Divide both sides by 4
∴ 
= daughter's age
- Subtract the daughter's age from her mother's age
∵ The difference of their ages = m -
- Change 1 m to a fraction of denominator 4, then 1 m = 
∴ The difference between their ages = - =
∴ The mother is older than her daughter by years
The mother is older than her daughter by years
