Answer:
2000 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
When the motorboat is moving downstream, its speed relative to the ground is 18 km/h, so its speed relative to the raft is 15 km/h.
When the motorboat is moving upstream, its speed relative to the ground is 12 km/h, so its speed relative to the raft is again 15 km/h.
Converted to m/min, the relative speed is:
15 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 h / 60 min) = 250 m/min
It takes the motorboat 16 minutes to travel to the front of the raft and back. Since the speed is the same in both directions, the motorboat takes 8 minutes to travel the length of the raft.
So the length of the raft is 250×8 = 2000 meters.
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Thisbis because when two of them are hanged on the same side it means that it's addition. (Addition of weight)
Because the angels are equivalent, you can set the expressions equal to each other and solve. You will find that x = 54.

Answer: 38 pages per night
Step-by-step explanation:
Tori used to read an average of 40 pages per night but now she is going at a rate that is 5% slower.
To find the number of pages she is reading now, first find 5% of 40 pages:
= 5% * 40
= 2
Then subtract this figure from 40:
= 40 - 2
= 38 pages per night
<em>By deducting 5% from the reading quantity, the person is reading at 5% less. </em>
Remember to include the positive and negative roots
(7x-2)^2=256
sqrt both sides
7x-2=+/-16
add 2 to both sides
7x=2+/-16
divdide both sides by 7
x=(2+/-16)/7)
x=(2+16)/7=18/7=2 and 4/7
x=(2-16)/7=-14/7=-2
x=2 and 4/7 or -2
