Answer:

The least possible number of people in the family is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the minimum number of people that make up the family, knowing that 0.83 of the children are boys, the following logical reasoning must be carried out:

Given that 0.83 is the result of 5/6, it can be said that 5 of the 6 children of the couple are boys. These 6 children must be added to the 2 fathers of the family, with which the total number of family members is 8.

Answer:

An equation of the circle with centre (-2,1) and radius 3 is \mathbf{(x+2)^2+(x-1)^2=9}

Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the figure we get centre of circle C (-2,1) and radius of circle r = 3

The equation of circle is of form: (x-h)^2+(x-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is centre and r is radius.

We have centre C (-2,1) so, we have h = -2 and k = 1

We have radius = 3 so, r = 3

Putting values in the equation and finding the required equation:

(x-h)^2+(x-k)^2=r^2\\(x-(-2))^2+(x-1)^2=(3)^2\\(x+2)^2+(x-1)^2=9

So,  an equation of the circle with centre (-2,1) and radius 3 is \mathbf{(x+2)^2+(x-1)^2=9}

Option D is correct.

The speed of the boat going with a current is 20 mph. When the boat goes against the current, the speed is 16 mph. Find the spee
adoni [48]

Answer:

The speed of the boat in still water is 18 mph.

The speed of the current is 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.

Let y represent the speed of the current.

When the boat goes against the current, the speed is 16 mph. Assuming it traveled against the current while going upstream, its total speed would be (x - y) mph. It means that

x - y = 16  (equation 1)

Going downstream, the boat averages 20 mph. Assuming it traveled with the current, its total speed would be (x + y) mph. It means that

x + y = 20  (equation 2)

Adding both equations, it becomes

2x = 36

x = 36/2

x = 18 mph

Substituting x = 18 into equation 1, it becomes

18 - y = 16

y = 18 - 16

y = 2 mph
