Answer:

b= 10 miles/hr and c= 5 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let it's downstream and upstream speed be d and u respectively

also speed of the boat be b and speed of stream be c.

as per question d = 150/10= 15 miles/hr

and, u= 150/30= 5 miles/hr

also we know d= b+c = 15.....i and u = b-c= 5....ii

solving i and ii we get b= 10 miles/hr and c= 5 miles/hr

Calculate the area of the shaded region.
Nostrana [21]

Let A be the area of the sector in the larger circle (radius 12 cm) whose central angle is subtended by the labeled arc with measure 45 deg, and let a be the area of the sector in the smaller circle (radius 8 cm) with the same central angle. The area you want is A-a.

We have

\dfrac A{\pi(12\,\mathrm{cm})^2}=\dfrac{45^\circ}{360^\circ}\implies A=18\pi\,\mathrm{cm}^2

\dfrac a{\pi(8\,\mathrm{cm})^2}=\dfrac{45^\circ}{360^\circ}\implies a=8\pi\,\mathrm{cm}^2

So the area of the shaded region is 18\pi-8\pi=10\pi.
