Question

A ship goes at the rate of (3m-2) knots per hour. How far can it travel in (4m+9) hours?

Answer 1

Answer: $12m^2+19m-18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Speed of boat $v=3m-2\ \text{knots per hour}$

$\text{time t= }4m+9\ \text{hours}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Distance =speed}\times \text{time}$

$\Rightarrow \text{Distance d=}(3m-2)\cdot (4m+9)\\\Rightarrow d=12m^2+19m-18$
