Speed of canoe in still water we will denote it CS and water itself has a speed we denote it WS. Downstream will be (CS + WS)*45 = 2, Upstream will be (CS - WS)*90 = 2. Solve the system you will find canoe speed in still water and the water speed as well. 90CS = 90WS +2, CS = WS+ 1/45 put it in the first function 90WS +1 = 2, WS = 1/90 miles per minute, CS =1/30 miles per minute.

Artemon [7]

Answer:

I don't know what you mean with a b c d and e, but x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

x=7 because first you subtract 6 from each side, because you wan't to have just x, so you will get 3x=21, and then you just divide both sides by3 to get x=7
