<h3>Answer: C) x = 80</h3>

==================================================

Work Shown:

Let's cross multiply to get the following

14/20 = 56/x

14*x = 20*56

14x = 1120

x = 1120/14

x = 80

-------------------

As a way to check the answer, we can type 14/20 - 56/80 into the calculator and we should get 0. I'm taking advantage of the rule that if A = B, then A-B = 0. This trick is handy to check if two sides of any equation are equal to one another.

What is the value of f(-4) in the piecewise function f(x)= -x-5 for -5<= x <= -2; -x^2+1 for -2<=x<=2; (x-3)^2+2 for

Alik [6]

We first need to pick the correct piece to use. In this case, we will use f(x) = -x-5 because -5<=-4.

Then, we use direct substitution:
f(-4) = -(-4) - 5
f(-4) = -1

A boat has a speed of 15 mph in still water. It travels downstream from Greentown to Glenavon in g hours. It then goes back upst

Lerok [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:

B = speed of the boat in still water

C = speed of the current

Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.

How do we find the two equations we need?

Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).

Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)

The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! <u>Distance=(Rate)(Time) </u>Now solve using the systems of equations!
