3(5+7) is the problem you are looking at. To figure it out, you can use properties. On the right side of the equals sign, it shows a property you can use to do the problem. In this case, they are distributing.

Answer:

time upstream=24/8=3 hours

time downstream=24/12=2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If R*T=D, and R is speed + or - current, how can you find the rate without the time, and how can you find the time without the rate?

THE KEY WAS WHEN WE WERE TOLD THAT IT TAKES ONE HOUR LONGER TO GO UPSTREAM THAN DOWNSTREAM BECAUSE T=D/R AND WE ARE TOLD THAT:

D/R(Upstream) minus 1 equals D/R (DOWNSTREAM)

Let x=rate of current

distance(d)=rate(r) times time(t) or d=rt or t=d/r

distance upstream=distance downstream=24 mi

rate upstream=10-x

rate downstream=10+x

time upstream=(distance upstream)/(rate upstream)=24/(10-x)

time downstream=(distance downstream)/(rate downstream)=24/(10+x)

Now, we are told that time upstream minus one hour equals time downstream. So our equation to solve is:

24/(10-x)-1=24/(10+x) Multiply both sides by (10-x)(10+x)

24(10+x)(10-x)/(10-x)-1(10-x)(10+x)=24(10-x)/(10+x)/(10+x) clear fractions

24(10+x)-(10-x)(10+x)=24(10-x) clear parens

240+24x-100-10x+10x+x^2=240-24x subtract 240 from and add 24x to both sides

240-240+24x+24x-100+x^2=240-240-24x+24x collect like terms

x^2+48x-100=0 ----------------quadratic equation in standard form

This equation can be factored:

(x+50)(x-2)=0

x=-50 mph----------------discount the negative value for speed

and

x=2 mph----------------------speed of the current

10-x=10-2= 8 mph -----------------------speed upstream

10+x=10+2=12 mph--------------------------speed downstream

time upstream=24/8=3 hours

time downstream=24/12=2 hours

so 3-2=1----takes 1 hour longer upstream

In 1000 sq. meter of land a farmer cultivated 765 kg of rice with the wastage of 23.5%.I) Find the weight of the wastage. II) Fi

slega [8]

Answer:

i. weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A land of 1000 sq. meter is used to cultivate 765 kg of rice with wastage of 23.5%.

i. The wastage in percentage is 23.5% but the weight of the wastage in weight is 23.5% of 765 kg

weight of wastage = 23.5/100 × 765

weight of wastage = 17977.5/100

weight of wastage(kg) = 179.775 kg

ii. weight and percentage of rice cultivated.

weight of rice cultivated = 765 kg - 179. 775 kg = 585.225 kg

percentage of rice cultivated = 100 - 23.5 = 76.5%

A sporting goods store manager was selling a ski set for a certain price. The manager offered the markdowns shown, making the

Ilya [14]

Answer:

The original selling price would be $ 515.87 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original selling price ( in dollars ),

After marking down 10%,

New selling price = x - 10% of x = x - 0.1x = 0.9x

Again after marking down 30%,

Final selling price = 0.9x - 30% of 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.3 × 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.27x

= 0.63x

According to the question,

0.63x = 325

$\implies x =\frac{325}{0.63}\approx 515.87$

Hence, the original selling price would be $ 515.87.
