3 percent i think just double check
Answer: the speed of the current is 0.6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
James is kayaking. He can row 3 mph in still water. If he can travel 6 miles downstream. Assuming he went with the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 + x)
Time = distance/speed
Time taken to travel downstream is
6/(3 + x)
In the same amount of time, he can travel 4 miles upstream. Assuming he went against the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 - x). Time taken to travel upstream is
4/(3 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
6/(3 + x) = 4/(3 - x)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
6(3 - x) = 4(3 + x)
18 - 6x = 12 + 4x
4x + 6x = 18 - 12
10x = 6
x = 6/10
x = 0.6 mph
Answer:
50 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is the volume of 20% acid, then:
x (0.20) + 20 (0.45) = (x + 20) (0.30)
0.2x + 9 = 0.3x + 6
3 = 0.1x
x = 30
30 liters of 20% acid are needed, so there will be a total of 50 liters of 30% acid.
