Answer: If they stood end to end they would be 2,489.
Step-by-step explanation: If you add 1,362 and 1,127 it sums up to 2,489.
Since the whole thing is 24x+8, it is divided in 2 parts so both of those must be equal to the whole one. You get:
14x-2+70=24x+8
10x=60
x=6
Answer:
let x=rate of the rowing team in still water
x+4=rate of the rowing team with current
x-4=rate of the rowing team against current
travel time=distance/rate
..
90%2F%28x%2B4%29=10%2F%28x-4%29
90x-360=10x+40
80x=400
x=5 rate of the rowing team in still water=5 mph
