A square with a side length of 8 inches would have an area of 8*8= 64 inches^2. If the area is multiplied by 36, the new area = 64*36 = 2304 inches^2. To find the new side length of the square, you take the square root of 2304, which equals 48. The side length of the square becomes 48 inches.
Answer: btw ratio
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- boat: 6 mph
- current: 2 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...
speed = distance/time
For boat speed b and current speed c, the speed downstream is ...
b +c = (16 mi)/(2 h) = 8 mi/h
The speed upstream is ...
b -c = (16 mi)/(4 h) = 4 mi/h
Adding the two equations eliminates the c term:
2b = 12 mi/h
b = 6 mi/h . . . . . divide by 2
Solving the second equation for c, we get ...
c = b -4 mi/h = 6 mi/h -4 mi/h = 2 mi/h
The speed of the boat in still water is 6 mi/h; the current is 2 mi/h.
Answer: (C) 4
