A wildlife photographer photographs a crocodile and then paddles against a river current for 6 km. Then, hoping to photograph a

hippopotamus, she paddles 15 km across a lake. She paddles across the lake for one hour longer than she paddled up the river. Find the speed of the boat as she paddles the lake if the river current is 2 km/h.

Answer:

5 or 6

Step-by-step explanation:

So I did it in a different way than shown in rsm classes. I said that the speed was x-2 and x.

then I said the distance was 6 and 15. If the time taken was 1 hour more, then we can come up with this equation:

Since the time is 6/x-2 or 15/x

15/x-6/x-2=1

multiply everything to get a common denominator then cancel it out to get

(15x-30)-6x=x^2-2x

11x-30=x^2

x^2-11x+30=0

(x-5)(x-6) is factored form.

so x=5 or x=6. this means that the speed of the boat is either 5km/h or 6 km/h

Answer:

Two-Stage Least Squares (2SLS) Regression Analysis

Two-Stage least squares (2SLS) regression analysis is a statistical technique that is used in the analysis of structural equations. This technique is the extension of the OLS method. It is used when the dependent variable’s error terms are correlated with the independent variables. Additionally, it is useful when there are feedback loops in the model. In structural equations modeling, we use the maximum likelihood method to estimate the path coefficient. This technique is an alternative in SEM modeling to estimate the path coefficient. This technique can also be applied in quasi-experimental studies.

HELP PLZ!!! Michelle owns a clothing store that designs T-shirts and shorts. She sells
bixtya [17]
Answer: B

Step by Step: If it takes 2 hours to design shorts to get $15 and 1 hours to make shirts for $8 you can multiply 8 by 2 and get 16 which is more than 15. The reason you multiply 8 by 2 is because it takes 2 hours to make 1 pair of shorts. With this you then multiply 16 by 9 which gives you 144.

Hope this helps
