Mathematics

Given :

▪︎This triangle is an isosceles triangle.

▪︎Measure of one of its legs = 6 inches

▪︎Measure of its equivalent leg = \tt \frac{x}{9} inches

▪︎Measure of its base = \tt \frac{5}{2} inches

Which means :

=\tt 6 =  \frac{x}{9}

=\tt  \frac{6}{1}  =  \frac{x}{9}

=\tt 6 \times 9  = x \times 1

\hookrightarrow\color{plum}\tt 54 = x

Let us check whether or not we have found out the correct value of x by placing 54 in the place of x :

=\tt 6 =  \frac{54}{9}

= \tt6 = 6

Since the Left Hand Side of the equation is equivalent to the Right Hand Side of the equation, we can conclude that we have found out the correct value of x.

▪︎Therefore, the value of <u>x = 54</u>

A fisherman can row upstream at 5mph and downstream at 10mph he started rowing upstream until he got tired and then rowed downst
AlekseyPX

We have been given that the upstream speed is 5 mph and the down stream speed is 10mph.

Let the fisherman traveled a distance of x miles.

The total time of the trip is 6 hours.

Relations between speed (s), time (t) and distance (d) is s = \frac{d}{t}

Hence, t= \frac{d}{s}

Time upstream +  time downstream = 6

\frac{x}{5} +\frac{x}{10} =6

lcm = 10

\frac{2x+x}{10} =6

=> \frac{3x}{10} =6

Cross multiplying, 3x= 60

x = 20 miles .. Answer.
