The speed of the current in a river is 6 miles per hour
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Speed of boat in still water = 20 miles per hour
Time taken = 3 hours
Distance downstream = 78 miles
To find: Speed of current
<em><u>If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then: </u></em>
Speed downstream = (u + v) km/hr
Speed upstream = (u - v) km/hr
<em><u>Therefore, speed downstream is given as:</u></em>

We know that,
Speed downstream = (u + v)
26 = 20 + v
v = 26 - 20
v = 6 miles per hour
Thus speed of the current in a river is 6 miles per hour
The answer is A. -2+5i.
First you set up the problem like this: (6+2i)-(8-3i)
Then you distribute the (-) into the second parenthesis. After doing that you should have something that looks like this: 6+2i-8+3i
Then you add like terms.
Answer:
x= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+9 =11x-61
9 = 7x - 61
70 = 7x
x = 7
