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:
.20
Step-by-step explanation:
take the two digit % and move the decimal two places to the left
Answer:
1st = 4×10 ^-9
2nd= 4×10^1
3rd = 4×10^7
4th = 4×10^-5
Step-by-step explanation:
for whole numbers you just have to count from the ending till the number indicated beside the x10
for decimals you count from the front starting at the decimal till you cover the whole number
Answer:
23
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 23•23=529 so the square root of 529 is 23.
