<span><span><span>Let the original number be "x".
(x-10)/4 = 2
x-10 = 8
x = 18 (original number of pieces of candy.)</span></span></span>
Answer:
(final - initial/initial ) * 100
66 - 55/55 * 100
11/55 * 100
100/5
= 20 percent
Let b and s be the velocity of the boat and stream respectively....
3(b-s)=27
b-s=9
b=9+s we will use this in the second equation....
2(b+s)=30
b+s=15, now use b found above in this to get:
9+s+s=15
2s+9=15
2s=6
s=3, and since from earlier b-s=9, b=9+s so
b=12
So the speed of the boat is 12mph and the stream is 3 mph
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - 3 is 0
6 + 2 is 8
0 x 8 = 0
