Answer:
1. x= -1/3
2. y= -4, x= 2
3. y=-2, x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
The dimension from 8 inches to actual size is 8 * 15 = 120. 14.5 inches to actual size is 14.5 * 15 = 217.5.
Then, you multiply 120 to 217.5 to get 26100 square miles.
The answer is D.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7
let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)
time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)
⇒⇒⇒ divide by d
1/(x-7)
= 3/(x+7)
x+7
= 3(x-7)
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14
So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
