Answer:

Let  b  =  rate of the boat.

Let  r  =  rate of the river.

The rate going downstream is  b + r.

The rate going upstream is  b - r.

rate x time  =  distance

4(b + r)  =  144     --->     b + r  =  36     [divide both sides by 4]

9(b - r)  =  144      --->     b - r  =  16      [divide both sides by 9]

Add town:                          2b  =  52  

Divide by :                           b  =  26  mi/hr

                                           r  =  10  mi/hr

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

D). (-4,-8)​

Step-by-step explanation:

An image at (8,-4) if rotated at an angle of 90° wipl have another location.

First of all, an image at (8,-4) is in the fourth quadrant, and if it's to rotate clockwise at 90° iths supposed to be in the third quadrant.

And in the third quadrant both x and y is negative.

So the new position is at (-4,-8)​

HELPPPPP! Tamlin collects action figures and has 2 more female action figures than male action figures. He chooses two action fi
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

x+2/2(2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Tamlin has x male action figures and x + 2 female action figures, so a total of x + x + 2, or 2x + 2 action figures. The probability of picking two female action figures without replacement is equal to the product of the probability of

-picking 1 female action figure from the total number and

-picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure from the total is equal to the total number of female action figures divided by the total number of action figures.

The probability of picking 1 female action figure after 1 has been removed is equal to the total number of female action figures minus 1 divided by the total number of action figures minus 1.

Multiply these two expressions and simplify.

Which shows the correct substitution of the values a, b, and c from the equation 1 = -2x + 3x2 + 1 into the quadratic
lidiya [134]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to do is to make sure our equation is in standard form. The given equation is not in standard form.

3x²-2x=0

Now that the equation is in standard form, we can find our A, B, C to see which quadratic equation is correct.

A=3

B=-2

C=0

We can automatically eliminate D because the first value is -3 when it is supposed to be -(-2). Also, the denominator is supposed to be 2a. We know that A=3. The denominator should be 2(3), not 2(-2).

Next, we can eliminate B and C. For the 4ac, we know it has to be 4(3)(0) because A=3 and C=0. B and C have given 4(3)(2) and 4(3)(1), respectively. This does not match A=3 and C=0.

Therefore, A is the correct answer.
