Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b and c are the speeds of the boat in stool water, and current, respectively.

Going with the current, the boat travels b+c=16 km/h.

Going against the current, the boat travels b-c=6 km/h

add the equations together

b+c = 16

b-c = 6

—————

2b = 22

b = 11

c = 16-b = 5

Which statement about the equation y = 5x – 8 is correct?
lbvjy [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A. The equation represents a linear function because the equation is in the form y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear function does not have to be in the form y = mx + b, but if a function is in that form, it is a linear function.

  choice A is appropriate

__

A function may have two variables, x and y, and not be a linear function. For example, y = x² is not a linear function. The fact that it has two variables is not what makes it linear.

What is the solution to this equation:<br> X+7=-8
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

\boxed {x = -15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of x:

x  + 7 = -8

-Subtract both sides by 7:

x + 7 - 7 = -8 - 7

\boxed {x = -15}

So, the value of x is -15.

Write the verbal sentence as an equation:
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

2n-12=7n-15

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope i did it right im sorry if i didnt! in the first sentence it tells you "twelve less than" therefore its telling you that you are going to be subtracting which automatically means that its not going to be the first thing you write down. You then continue reading and it tells you "2 times a number (n)" which is written as 2n because to things side by side like that signifies that you are multiplying. Then you have your equal sign which is self explanatory. and basically you follow the same reasoning as you did the first part and you end up with 7n-15 and the other half of your equation. I hope that helped!
