Answer:
- boat: 16 mph
- current: 4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
speed = distance / time
The rate downriver is (60 mi)/(3 h) = 20 mi/h.
The rate upriver is (60 mi)/(5 h) = 12 mi/h.
The rate of the boat in still water is the average of these:
(20 +12)/2 mi/h = 16 mi/h
The rate of the current is the difference between the boat speed and actual speed:
16 mi/h - 12 mi/h = 4 mi/h
Answer:
1235 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a Cylinder: 2πr²*h
π = 3.14
r = 5.5 ft
h = 13 ft
Volume = 2(3.14)(5.5)²*13 = 1235.43 ft³
Rounded to nearest whole number
Volume of the Cylindrical Water tank is 1235 ft³
Answer:
50 newspapers
Step-by-step explanation:
100 (total amount of newspapers) - 25 (amount Edward already sold) = 75 (amount of newspapers left)
75 (amount of newspapers left) ÷ 3 (Edward and his 2 friends) = 25 (equal amount each person delivered)
25 (amount Edward already sold) + 25 (amount Edward sold after his friends helped him) = 50 (amount of newspapers Edward sold in total)

Answer:
Store 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
1. $4.50 for 5 pounds
2. $1/5 for 1/3 pounds
3. $4.00 for 5 pounds
Required
Determine the store with the lowest unit rate
To do this, we simply divide the price by the weights in each store
For Store 1:
For Store 2:
For Store 3:
<em>Comparing the unit rates of the three stores, we can conclude that store 2 offers the least unit rate</em>
