Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7
let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)
time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)
⇒⇒⇒ divide by d
1/(x-7)
= 3/(x+7)
x+7
= 3(x-7)
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14
So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
I believe its 80 if you derive it out, but there is no units of measurement.
I think that these ordered pairs would be the answer (-2,-1).
Well, there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, and there are 60 seconds in 1 minute, so in 60 minutes, there are 60 * 60 seconds, or 3600 seconds in 60 minutes, or 1 hour, therefore, in 1 hour there are 3600 seconds.
the machine makes 7 aliens in 2 seconds, how many will it make in 3600 seconds?
that many.
Answer:
discriminant: 241
2 real roots
Step-by-step explanation:
The discriminant is the part of the quadratic equation that is under the sqare root
x=(-b±√(b²-4ac))/2a
discriminant: b²-4ac
We also know that a quadratic equation is in the form ax²+bx+c = 0, so we can plug in the values we know from our equation to find the discriminant.
a=4
b=-17
c=3
(-17)^2-4(4)(3)
We also know that if the discriminant
is positive we have 2 real roots
is 0 we have 1 real root aka a repeated real solution
is negative we have no real roots
