Answer:
- boat speed: 17.25 mph
- current: 2.5 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Upstream, the speed of the current (c) subtracts from the speed of the boat (b) to give the net speed. Downstream, the speed of the current adds. We can make use of the relation ...
speed = distance/time
b-c = 29.5/2 = 14.75 . . . . . miles/hour
b+c = 59.25/3 = 19.75 . . . .miles/hour
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...
(b+c) -(b-c) = 19.75 -14.75
2c = 5
c = 2.5
Then either equation can be used to find b:
b = 14.75 +c = 17.25
The speed of the boat in still water is 17.25 miles per hour; the speed of the current is 2.5 miles per hour.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
If its C I'm sorry That seems correct but I don't know for sure, just my advice!
Yes, it does.
HEHE btw what is that haha i know
Answer:
rises down 4 and moves forward 4
Y=3x-14 or 3x-14=Y
This is because you want to keep y positive, and so you add Y on both sides and get 3x=14+y, then you want to get y alone so you subtract 14 on both sides and get 3x-14=Y
