D=rt
r=(boatrate+riverrate)=(x+2)mph
d=528ft=528/5280mi=1/10mi
t=1/3hr
remember to keep the same units
so
1/10=(x+2)(1/3)
times both sides by 3
3/10=x+2
minus 2 or 20/10
-17/10=x
-1.7=x
it would be going -1.7mph (means going backwards)
Here we have a system of equation like this:

from the first equation we get:

Substitute in the second equation we get:

Substitute i the first equation again we get:

We deduce that:

A is bigger than B.
Answer:
irrational
Step-by-step explanation:
irrational because there will still be a 2 under the root when you simplify to 2√2
