Answer:
- boat: 16 mph
- current: 4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
speed = distance / time
The rate downriver is (60 mi)/(3 h) = 20 mi/h.
The rate upriver is (60 mi)/(5 h) = 12 mi/h.
The rate of the boat in still water is the average of these:
(20 +12)/2 mi/h = 16 mi/h
The rate of the current is the difference between the boat speed and actual speed:
16 mi/h - 12 mi/h = 4 mi/h
Answer:
f=2
Step-by-step explanation:
3=9-3f
3-9=-3f
-6=-3f
2=f
f=2
39 divided by 4 equals 9 batches with 3/12 raisins left over
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Since AB and BC are two parts of AC, AC = AB + BC
let's plug the expressions from the question into our equation above.
19 = 3x + 1 + 2x - 7
Combine like terms
19 = 5x - 6
Add 6 to both sides.
25 = 5x
Divide both sides by 5
5 = x
