Answer:

7/3 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

knowing that:

distance traveled = velocity * time - velocity of the water * time

4 = v1 * 1.5 + v2 * 1.5

4 = v1 * 2 - v2 * 2

solve the system in any way you want,

v1 = 7/3 miles per hour

v2 = 1/3 miles per hour

What is 2 5/6 +1 5/7
mylen [45]
Hi Cherise1cherhop lets break this equation down with these steps:

1) add the whole numbers first

2) find the LCD of the fractions and that would be 42 since 42 can go into both denominators through multiplication

3) make the denominators (bottom numbers) the same as the LCD (42)

4) simplify it, now the denominators are equal

5) join the denominators together

6) simplify it (3 + 65/42)

7) convert 65/42 to mixed fraction

8) now that we made it a mixed fraction, simplify it

Answer: 4 23/42

The jewerly store is having a sale. Necklaces that were regulaey priced at $23.50 are on dale for $18.80. What is the percentage
AveGali [126]
What we need to do is find the difference between the two numbers to find the difference in price and then figure out what the percent of 23.5 that is

23.50-18.80=4.7

now we'll set up a proportion

4.7       x
----- = -----
23.5   100

then cross multiply and divide

100×4.7=470/23.5=20

the percent of decrease is 20%

I hope I've helped!
