Answer:
Speed of boat in still water = 11 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = distance / time
or
Distance= Speed * time
Let s be speed of the boat upstream and r be the speed of the river.
Then
Upstream speed= s- r = 60/6= 10 miles per hour
Downstream speed= s+r= 72/6= 12 miles per hour
Therefore
s-r= 10--------- equation A
s+r= 12--------- equation B
Adding equation A and Eq. b
s-r= 10--------- equation A
<u>s+r= 12--------- equation B </u>
<u>2s = 22 </u>
<u />
or
s= 22/2= 11 miles per hour.
Speed of boat in still water = 11 miles per hour.
The Answer is 76.5, because 153/2 is 76.5
Answer:
The probability that you would choose lemon-lime and then orange is 3/11 =.273.
Step-by-step explanation:
These are 'dependent events', which mean that your the event is affected by previous events. So, because you have eleven total bottles (five lemon-lime and six orange) and you do not replace the first bottle, that would only leave you with ten bottles remaining. The probability that you will pick the lemon-lime on the first choice is 5/11 because all of the bottles are there. However, your second choice will only include ten total bottles since you already took one. The probability that you would choose orange would be 6/10. When you multiply these two fractions and reduce to simplest form, you get 3/11.
