Answer:
9.09
Step-by-step explanation:
x=speed of boat
y=speed of water current
Downstream relative speed = x+y
Upstream relative speed = x-y
Distance remains the same for both upstream and downstream.
a) Distance travelled downstream = speed x time = 3(x+y)
Distance travelled upstream = speed x time = 3.6(x-y)
b) Since both distances are equal, we can write
3(x+y)= 3.6(x-y)
3x+3y = 3.6x-3.6y
6.6y = 0,6x
x=11y: y=x/11
c) Water current has speed as 1/11 times of that of boat
In percent this equals 100/11 = 9.09%
Convert 0.5 into fraction and then into ratio
=>0.5
=>5/10
=>1/2
=>1:2
Hope it helped
(40 * 25) + 0.10x = (40 * 20) + 0.20x
1000 + 0.10x = 800 + 0.20x
1000 - 800 = 0.20x - 0.10x
200 = 0.10x
200/0.10 = x
2000 = x <=== weekly sales must be $ 2000
Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x
A If im not mistaken but that is what i would go with
