Answer:
Original cost was $19.99
Step-by-step explanation:
100% - 15% = 85%
16.99 / 0.85 = 19.99
To check:
19.99 * 0.15 = 2.998
19.99 - 2.998 = 16.992 = 16.99
Correct!!
108 miles 3 hours = 36 mph upstream
108 miles 2 hours = 54 mph downstream
bv = boat velocity in still water
cv = current velocity
bv -cv = 36
bv +cv = 54 Adding both equations
2*bv = 90
boat velocity in still water = 45 mph
since bv + cv = 54
then we know the current velocity = 9 mph
I think the answer is 631 tell me if I'm wrong
The difference between speeds, during the first 20 minutes and last 20 minutes, would be 4.3 miles. The key word here is difference which automatically tells us to subtract. In this case you would subtract 6.8 miles, the last 20 minutes, by 2.5 miles, the first 20 minutes. In the end, getting 4.3 miles. Hope this helps! :)
