A boat on a river travels downstream between two points, 90 mi apart, in 1 h. The return trip against the current takes 2 1 2 h.

docker41 [41]

Answer:

A)63miles per hour.

B)27 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

HERE IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION

boat on a river travels downstream between two points, 90 mi apart, in 1 h. The return trip against the current takes 2 1 2 h. What is the boat's speed (in still water)??b) How fast does the current in the river flow?

Let the speed of boat in still water = V(boat)

speed of current=V(current)

To calculate speed of boat downstream, we add speed of boat in still water and speed of current. This can be expressed as

[V(boat) +V(current)]

It was stated that it takes 1hour for the

boat to travels between two points of 90 mi apart downstream.

To calculate speed of boat against current, we will substact speed of current from speed of boat in still water. This can be expressed as

[V(boat) - V(current)]

and it was stated that it takes 2 1/2 for return trip against the Current

But we know but Speed= distance/time

Then if we input the stated values we have

V(boat) + V(current)]= 90/1 ---------eqn(1)

V(boat) - V(current) = 90/2.5----------eqn(2)

Adding the equations we have

V(boat) + V(current) + [V(boat) - V(current)]= 90/2.5 + 90/1

V(boat) + V(current) + V(boat) - V(current)]=90+36

2V(boat)= 126

V(boat)=63miles per hour.

Hence, Therefore, the speed of boat in still water is 63 miles per hour.

?b) How fast does the current in the river flow?

the speed of the current in the river, we can be calculated if we input V(boat)=63miles per hour. Into eqn(1)

V(boat) + V(current)]= 90/1

63+V(current)=90

V(current)= 27 miles per hour

Hence,Therefore, the speed of current is 27 miles per hour.

Kite EFGH is inscribed in a rectangle where F and H are midpoints of parallel sides. The area of EFGH is 35 square units. What i

sasho [114]

*see attachment for the figure described

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given the figure attached below, let where FH and EG intercepted be K.

Since FH are midpoints of parallel lines, KE = KG = x.

Given that the area of the kite EFGH = 35 square units, and we know the length of one of the diagonals = HF = KF + KH = 2 + 5 = 7, we can solve for x using the formula for the area of a kite.

Area of kite = ½ × d1 × d2

Where d1 = KH = 7

d2 = EG = KE + KG = x + x = 2x

Area of kite EFGH = 35

THUS:

35 = ½ × 7 × 2x

35 = 1 × 7 × x

35 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

35/7 = x

x = 5

For a certain online store, the distribution of number per hour is approximately normal with mean 1200 purchases and standard de

Advocard [28]

Answer: 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a normal distribution, the 100% of our sample will be placed in a "gaussian bell".

Where the middle of this bell coincides with the mean.

The mean, in this case, is 1200, and the standard deviation is 200.

In the image below you can see that between the points.

Mean + standard deviation and the end of the graph, we have:

13.5% + 2.35% + 0.15% = 16%

And particularly, if we want to know the percentage that exceed 1400, will be the same percentage above the mean plus the standard deviation.

mean = 1200

SD = 200

mean + standard deviation = 1200 + 200 = 1400.

Then the percentage that exceeds 1400 is equal to the percentage that we found above, then the correct option is C: 16%
