Speed of the boat = u
speed of the current = v

in downstream,
u - v = 105/5
u - v = 21

in upstream
u + v = 105/7
u + v = 15

add both equations
2u = 36
u = 18

v = -3

so
speed of the boat = 18 km/h
speed of the current = 3 km/h

At a competition with 8 runners, 2 medals are awarded for first and second
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation :

Since we have given that

Number of medals = 2

Number of runners = 8

We need to find the number of ways to award the medals.

We would use "fundamental theorem of counting" to find the number of ways.

So, number of ways is given by

8 × 7 = 56

Hence, option 'A' is correct.

Axis of symmetry: x=4; points: (3,-2), (6,-26); opening downward
Andru [333]
Vertex form is
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex is (h,k)
axis of symmetry is x=4, therfor h=4
y=a(x-4)^2+k

we have some points
(3,-2) and (6,-26)
input and solve for a and k

(3,-2)
-2=a(3-4)^2+k
-2=a(-1)^2+k
-2=a(1)+k
-2=a+k

(6,-26)
-26=a(6-4)^2+k
-26=a(2)^2+k
-26=a(4)+k
-26=4a+k

we have

-2=a+k
-26=4a+k
multiply first equation by -1 and add to second

2=-a-k
<u>-26=4a+k +</u>
-24=3a+0k

-24=3a
divide both sides by 3
-8=a

-2=a+k
-2=-8+k
add 8 to both sides
6=k

the equation is
y=-8(x-4)^2+6

The volume of a CONE-shaped hole is 75pi ft cubed. If the hole is 9 feet deep, what is the radius of the hole?
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The radius of hole is 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Depth of conical hole = 9 feet

Let the radius of hole be r

Volume of conical hole =\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h

So, Volume of conical hole =\frac{1}{3} \pi \times r^2 \times 9

We are given that volume of a CONE-shaped hole is 75pi ft cubed.

So,\frac{1}{3} \pi \times r^2 \times 9=75 \pi

\frac{1}{3} \times r^2 \times 9=75

r^2=\frac{75 \times 3}{9}

r=\sqrt{\frac{75 \times 3}{9}}

r=5

Hence The radius of hole is 5 feet

A train has 6 passenger cars and each car has 4 columns of seats and each column holds 50 passengers. If one of the cars has 25
Tema [17]
Given:
The train has 6 passenger cars
Each car has 4 columns
And 1 column hold 50 passengers

So, total of seats will be = 6 * 4 * 50 = 1200

Now, there are 25 empty seats, 

therefore the correct equation will be : 

Number of seats per car: 4 × 50 = 200

Total number of seats: 200 × 6 = 1,200

Number of passengers: 1,200 − 25 = p
