The answer would be 6x/5-16/5
16b and 3b are the answers
Answer:
2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
For a kayak speed of k miles per hour in still water, the speed upstream is (k-2) and the speed downstream is (k+2). Over the distances given, the times are the same, so we can write ...
10/(k-2) = 14/(k+2)
Multiplying by (k+2)(k-2) gives ...
10(k+2) = 14(k -2)
10k +20 = 14k -28 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
48 = 4k . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 28-10k
12 = k
Then the time for 28 miles downstream is ...
time = 28 / (12 +2) = 2 . . . . hours
It will take the person 2 hours to kayak 28 miles downstream.
Answer:
-3.5
The distance Rachel covers per hour is 3.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
After 2 hours, she is 13 miles from the campground.
After 4 hours, she is 6 miles from the campground.
Let x be the number of hours, y be the number of miles from the campground, then we have two points (2,13) and (4,6).
The equation of the line passing through the points 
and 
is
Substitute:
Hence,
The slope of the line is 
and it represents that the distance Rachel covers per hour is 3.5 miles.
The correct answer is C.) c=5
This is correct by using the equation c^2=a^2+b^2
c^2=3^2*4^2
c^2=9+16
c^2=25
Square root of c=square root of 25
c=5
