Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance upstream = (34-c)(39/60) miles
--------------------------
Distance downstream = (34+c)(29/60) miles
-----------------------------------------------
Equation:
distance = rate*time
distance up = distance down
(34-c)(39/60) = (34+c)(29/60)
Multiply both sides by 60 to get:
39(34-c) = 29(34+c)
39*34 - 39c = 29*34 + 29c
68c = 340
c = 5 mph speed of the current
Answer:
Solve for
x
x
by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
x
≈
0.25181781
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the inequality into two:
(-4x+14)>6 & -(-4x+14)>6
solve:
(-4x+14)>6
-4x>-8
x<2
(symbol changes when ÷/× by negative for inequalities.)
-(-4x+14)>6
-4x+14<-6
-4x<-20
x>5
the answers are x<2 and x>5, so you would write your answer like this: (-∞,2) ∪ (5,∞)
Terrance: 12 miles/1 hour
Jesse: 8 miles/1 hour
