Answer:
b is correct for Maria but c is correct for the boy
Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7
let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)
time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)
⇒⇒⇒ divide by d
1/(x-7)
= 3/(x+7)
x+7
= 3(x-7)
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14
So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
Answer:
x= -5
y= -21
Step-by-step explanation
I hope that is the answer you are looking for!And Brainiest is needed!
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
Hypotenuse2 = Perpendicular2 + Base2
c2 = a2 + b2
therefore,
c2 = (10)2 in + (24)2 in
c2 = 100 + 576
c2 = 676
c = √676
c = 26
That would be .82 as 82% is 82/100 so that makes the answer .82
