Answer:

The speed of the boat is 24 kilometers per hour, and the speed of the stream is 2 kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a riverboat travels 52 km downstream in 2 hours, and it travels 66 km upstream in 3 hours, the following calculations must be performed to find the speed of the boat and the speed of the stream:

Downstream = 52/2 = 26

Upstream = 66/3 = 22

Stream = 4/2 = 2

Therefore, the speed of the boat is 24 kilometers per hour, and the speed of the stream is 2 kilometers per hour.

If 4/5 of a population of a certain town is considered to be middle class and the population of the town is 2000 how many people
const2013 [10]
First, you would need to create an equation for this problem.
\frac{4}{5} = \frac{x}{2,000}

Next, you would cross multiply. 
5x = 8,000

Now, all you would have to do is isolate the x. To do this, you would divide both sides by 5. 
x = <span>1,600

1,600 people are considered middle class. 

I hope this helps!</span>
