Answer: the speed of the current is 0.6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
James is kayaking. He can row 3 mph in still water. If he can travel 6 miles downstream. Assuming he went with the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 + x)
Time = distance/speed
Time taken to travel downstream is
6/(3 + x)
In the same amount of time, he can travel 4 miles upstream. Assuming he went against the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 - x). Time taken to travel upstream is
4/(3 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
6/(3 + x) = 4/(3 - x)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
6(3 - x) = 4(3 + x)
18 - 6x = 12 + 4x
4x + 6x = 18 - 12
10x = 6
x = 6/10
x = 0.6 mph
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of abc/def=1.5
15/1.5=10

This can be solve by establishing equations.
let x be the miles mrs. storey drove
y be the miles mr storey drovee
the first equation is
y = 3x
second equation
x + y = 3200
then substitute equation 1
x + 3x = 3200
4x = 3200
x = 800 miles mrs storey drove
y = 3x = 2400 miles mr storey drove
Answer:
Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Every statement is true except, the one that says "Each fracton is greater than the previous fraction." This statement is not true. I know it looks like it, but let's think about it. Each fraction is equivalent to 2/3, which means they are technically equal to each other. So that means that each fraction is not greater than the previous one. This means that the statement "Each fraction is equal to the previous fraction in the pattern multiplied by 2/2" is a true statement.
2/3 x 2/2 = 4/6
4/6 x 2/2 = 8/12
8/12 x 2/2 = 16/24
16/24 x 2/2 = 32/48
So that means that the next fraction in the pattern is indeed 32/48, making the last statement true.
