Answer:

rate of the current = 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

d = rt

Let c = rate of the current

Rate going downstream = c + 40

Time going downstream = 126/(40 + c)

Rate going up stream =  40 - c

Time going upstream = 114/(40 - c)

Since the times are equal, then

126/(40 + c) = 114/(40 - c)

126(40 - c) = 114(40 + c)

5040 - 126c = 4560 + 114c

   240c  =  480

          c = 2 mph

Work out the following questions ​
Basile [38]

Answer: The first one is 2 2/3 and the second one is 10 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: So 2/3 divided by 1/4. First you would do keep, change, flip. Then that would give you 2/3 times 4/1. 2/3 times 4/1 would be 8/3 which can be simplified to 2 2/3. The second one 7 divided by 2/3. Again do keep, change, flip. 7 times 3/2. This would give you 21/2 when you simplify you get 10 1/2.

Answer: E. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept of a line is when the y coordinate is equal to zero, so input zero in for y and solve for x to find the x-intercept.

1/2x + 3/5(0) = 20

1/2x = 20    

 x = 40
