Answer:

8 plantains

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost and number of plantains are in proportion

Number of plantains that can be bought for $ 4 be 'x'

48 : 24 :: x : 4

Product of means = product of extremes

24 * x = 48*4

$x = \frac{48*4}{24}$

x = 2 * 4

x = 8

A certain ferry moves up and down a river between Town A and

Blizzard [7]

Answer: 60 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

It takes ferry 2 hours to travel to town A and only $1.5\ hr$ to travel back to town B.

Speed of current is $u=5\ mph$

Suppose the speed of the ferry is $v$ mph

Distance traveled in both the cases is same, but it took more time traveling to city A that is, ferry is moving upstream and downstream for returning time.

$\Rightarrow 2(v-5)=1.5(v+5)\\\Rightarrow 2v-10=1.5v+7.5\\\Rightarrow 0.5v=17.5\\\Rightarrow v=35\ mph$
