Answer:
6.11km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed that Kelli swims be represented by Y
Speed of the river = 5km/hr
Distance = Speed × Time
Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour
Swimming upstream takes a negative sign, hence:
1 hour ×( Y - 5) = Distance
Distance = Y - 5
She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes
Downstream takes a positive sign
Converting 6 minutes to hour =
60 minutes = 1 hour
6 minutes =
Cross Multiply
6/60 = 1/10 hour
Hence, Distance =
1/10 × (Y + 5)
= Y/10 + 1/2
Equating both equations we have:
Y - 5 = Y/10 + 1/2
Collect like terms
Y - Y/10 = 5 + 1/2
9Y/10 = 5 1/2
9Y/ 10 = 11/2
Cross Multiply
9Y × 2 = 10 × 11
18Y = 110
Y = 110/18
Y = 6.1111111111 km/hr
Therefore, Kelli's can swim as fast as 6.11km/hr still in the water.
Answer:
Answer D: f(-2) = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To evaluate f(-2) we need to find what is the y-value that the graph shows for the x-value "-2".
To find such, we look for the value x = -2 on the horizontal (x) axis (located two units to the left of the origin of coordinates (0,0)), and from there, we investigate at what y-value (value on the vertical y-axis) a line that follows the vertical grid passing through x = -2, intercepts the graph of the function.
That is pictured with a red dot in the attached image. Notice that the y-value at which such intersection occurs is y = 2.
Therefore f(-2) = 2
