Answer:

$1890

Step-by-step explanation:

x= couches

y=chair.

x=2y

2x=3y+270

2(2y) or 4y=3y+270

y=270

x=540

2(540)+3(270)=1890.

Hope this helps :D

A golfer wants to determine if the type of driver she uses each year can be used to predict the amount of improvement in her gam

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

The type of driver

Step-by-step explanation:

The term known as '' response variable'' is use in describing a variable that changes when you alter an examination or a test. Just like its name implies, it is the ''response'' that one gets when the other variable that is the Explanatory Variable are being altered.

In this question, the golfer will have to be changing the type of drivers that she is using in order to be able to know whether these changes in drivers will increase her game performance. Hence, the Explanatory Variable is the type of driver in which the golfer changes which is being use to define the performance of the golfer.

A motorboat travels 165 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream and 510 kilometers in 6 hours going downstream. What is the rate of

nikitadnepr [17]

<h3>Rate of the boat in still water is 70 km/hr and rate of the current is 15 km/hr</h3><h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that,

A motorboat travels 165 kilometers in 3 hours going upstream and 510 kilometers in 6 hours going downstream

Therefore,

Upstream distance = 165 km

Upstream time = 3 hours

<h3><u>Find upstream speed:</u></h3>

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}\\\\speed = \frac{165}{3}\\\\speed = 55$

Thus upstream speed is 55 km per hour

Downstream distance = 510 km

Downstream time = 6 hours

<h3><u>Find downstream speed:</u></h3>

$speed = \frac{510}{6}\\\\speed = 85$

Thus downstream speed is 85 km per hour

<em><u>If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then</u></em>

Speed downstream = u + v km/hr

Speed upstream = u - v km/hr

Therefore,

u + v = 85 ----- eqn 1

u - v = 55 ----- eqn 2

Solve both

Add them

u + v + u - v = 85 + 55

2u = 140

u = 70

<em><u>Substitute u = 70 in eqn 1</u></em>

70 + v = 85

v = 85 - 70

v = 15

Thus rate of the boat in still water is 70 km/hr and rate of the current is 15 km/hr

A town's yearly snowfall in inches over a 10-year period is recorded in this table. What is the mean of the snowfall amounts?

lawyer [7]

So to find the mean you add them all together and divide by the number of numbers there is so 11+15+19+17+23+20+17+18+21=174 and there are 10 numbers so it would be 174/10 which is 17.4 so you answer is 17.4
