Step-by-step explanation:
-5 × -5 = 25
-6 + 5 = 1
-3 + 5 = -8
Let V, be the rate in still water and let C = rate river current
If the boat is going :
upstream, its rate is V-C and if going
downstream, its rate is V+C,
But V = 5C, then
Upstream Rate: 5C - C = 4 C
Downstream rate: 5C+C = 6C
Time = distance/Rate, (or time = distance/speed) , then:
Upstream time 12/4C and
Downstream time: 12/.6C
Upstream time +downstream time:= 2h30 ' then:
12/4C + 12/.6C = 2.5 hours
3/C + 2/C = 5/2 (2.5 h = 5/2)
Reduce to same denominator :
5C = 10 and Rate of the current = 2 mi/h
I don't really grab the concept of this but it's basically numbering the graph ang filling the coordinates in the x and y spaces
y=4/-2+ x=5/-3
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
3 years ago, the difference in ages was twice Daniel's age. So, Daniel was 20/2 = 10 years old at that time. Ben was 30.
Now, Ben is 33.
_____
If two numbers have a ratio of 3:1, their difference is (3-1) = 2 times the smaller number.
