Answer:

error in step one

Step-by-step explanation:

Sunny earns $22.75 per week delivering. delivery boy for 3 weeks.

That means $22.75 x 3 not $22.75 + 3

He can correct his mistake by doing this:

<em>Step 1: [($22.75 * 3) + $32.75 - $14.25] * 1/ 5 </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Step 2: [$86.75] *1/5 </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Step 3: $17.35</em>

A man can drive a motorboat 70 miles down the Colorado River in the same amount of time that he can drive 40 miles upstream. Fin
pochemuha

The speed of the current is 40.34 mph approximately.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, a man can drive a motorboat 70 miles down the Colorado River in the same amount of time that he can drive 40 miles upstream.  

We have to find the speed of the current if the speed of the boat is 11 mph in still water. Now, let the speed of river be a mph.  Then, speed of boat in upstream will be a-11 mph and speed in downstream will be a+11 mph.

And, we know that, \text{ distance } =\text{ speed }\times \text{ time }

\begin{array}{l}{\text { So, for upstream } \rightarrow 40=(a-11) \times \text { time taken } \rightarrow \text { time taken }=\frac{40}{a-11}} \\\\ {\text { And for downstream } \rightarrow 70=(a+11) \times \text { time taken } \rightarrow \text { time taken }=\frac{70}{a+11}}\end{array}

We are given that, time taken for both are same. So \frac{40}{a-11}=\frac{70}{a+11}

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 40(a+11)=70(a-11)} \\\\ {\rightarrow 40 a+440=70 a-770} \\\\ {\rightarrow 70 a-40 a=770+440} \\\\ {\rightarrow 30 a=1210} \\\\ {\rightarrow a=40.33}\end{array}

kyle models a sum of two integers. he uses more negative (red) counters than postive (yellow) counters. what do you predict abou
Firdavs [7]

the sign would probably be a negative. imagine this - - - - - - and then + + +, cancel out the negatives and plus then you are left with more negatives than positive so the sign will take the negative sign.
