Let speed of the boat in still water = x miles per hour
Let speed of the current = y miles per hour
When water and current both flow in same direction then effective speed will be sum of both speeds that is (x+y)
now plug the given values in formula speed=distance/time
we get equation:
(x+y)=160/8
or x+y=20...(i)
When water and current both flow in opposite direction then effective speed will be difference of both speeds that is (x-y)
now plug the given values in formula speed=distance/time
we get equation:
(x-y)=160/40
or x-y=4
or x=4+y...(ii)
plug value of x into (i)
4+y+y=20
4+2y=20
2y=16
y=8
plug value of y into (ii)
x=4+8=12
Hence final answer is given by:
Speed of the boat in still water = 12 miles per hour
Speed of the current = 8 miles per hour
Answer:
53x - 4 = 30
53x = 30 +4
53x = 34
x= 34/53
I don't see a answer that matches the answer to the problem that you stated. Check problem.
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 3/2
3 units up and 2 units to the left that is the slope
It would be 32 x 12 because there are 12 inches per feet. So the answer would be 384 inches per sec squared. If this is right could you possibly give me brainliest? Hope this helped.
