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:
Her first error was adding the wrong number to both sides. Instead of 4², it should be 2²
Step-by-step explanation:
When completing the square, the number that needs to be added to both sides is (b/2)²
In this problem, b is 4. So, Carly should have added 2² to both sides, but she added 4² instead.
So, her first error was adding 4² to both sides instead of 2²
Answer:
√26 ≈ 5.1 units
Step-by-step explanation:
√(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²
√(3/2 - 5/2)² + (8 - 3)²
√(-1)² + (5)²
√1 + 25
√26
0≤h(t)≤144, which means that the height of the object can be between 0 and 144 feet, including those limits.
