Answer:

-3 +2y \leq 4x

2y \leq 4x+3

y \leq 2x + \frac{3}{2}

And that's different from the claim of the student that:

y \geq 2x +\frac{3}{2}

The error of the student is that he/she changes the sign of the inequality from \leq to \geq and that's not possible since we don't multiply both sides of the equation by -1

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following inequality:

-3 +2y \leq 4x

We want to rewrite the last expression with y in the left and x in the right so we can begin adding 3 in both sides of the inequality and we got:

2y \leq 4x+3

Now we can divide both sides of the inequality by 2 and we got:

y \leq 2x + \frac{3}{2}

And that's different from the claim of the student that:

y \geq 2x +\frac{3}{2}

The error of the student is that he/she changes the sign of the inequality from \leq to \geq and that's not possible since we don't multiply both sides of the equation by -1

A motorboat travels 204 kilometers in 6 hours going upstream. It travels 372 kilometers going downstream in the same amount of t
Arturiano [62]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • boat: 48 km/h
  • current: 14 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The upstream speed is ...

  u = (204 km)/(6 h) = 34 km/h

The downstream speed is ...

  d = (372 km)/(6 h) = 62 km/h

The speed of the boat in still water is the average of these values:

  b = (34 kph +62 kph)/2 = 48 kph

The speed of the water is the difference between the boat's speed and the speed made good:

  w = 48 -34 = 14 . . . km/h

The rate of the boat in still water is 48 km/h. The rate of the current is 14 km/h.
