A canoe in still water travels at a rate of 12 miles per hour. The current today is traveling at a rate of 2 miles per hour. If

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

It’s 60miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the trip is "d" miles and that the "extra hour" refers to the additional time that a current of 2 mph would add. That is, we assume the reference time is for a current of 0 mph.

The time with no current is ...

time1 = distance/speed

time1 = d/12 . . . . hours

With a current of 2 mph in the opposite direction, the time is ...

time2 = d/(12 -2) = d/10

The second time is 1 hour longer than the first, so we have ...

time2 = 1 + time1

d/10 = 1 + d/12

6d = 60 + 5d . . . . multiply by 60

d = 60 . . . . . . . . . subtract 5d

The one-way distance is 60 miles.

9. shyam travelled 8 km 52 m by bus, 2 km 265 m by car. how much distance did he travel in all

Eduardwww [97]

Shyam travel total $10km 317m$ distance ,when he travelled $8 km 52 m$ by bus and $2 km 265 m$ by car .

How to find the total distance travel by Shyam ?

Shyam travelled distance by bus $=8 km 52 m$

Shyam travelled distance by car $=2 km 265 m$

Total distance travelled by shyam is

Total distance= distance travelled by car + distance travelled by bus

Total distance

$=2 km 265 m+8 km 52 m\\=(2+8)km(265+52)m\\=10km317m$

PLEASE HELP ITS URGENT

The missing step in this proof is ∠BAC ≅ ∠BDE ⇒ answer D

Step-by-step explanation:

If two triangles are similar by SAS, then their corresponding angles are

equal and the 3rd corresponding sides have constant ratio

In the two triangles ABC and DBE:

∠ABC ≅ ∠DBE
$\frac{AB}{DB}=\frac{BC}{BE}$

Then the two triangles are similar

From similarity:

∠BAC ≅ ∠BDE

∠BCA ≅ ∠BED

∴ The missing step is ∠BAC ≅ ∠BDE

The missing step in this proof is ∠BAC ≅ ∠BDE
