Hello,
Please, see the attached file.
Thanks.
Really that’s your question :> the answer is 5
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:
p = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 18 from behind the equal sign to cancel it out. This leaves you with 2(p+1)- 18= 0.
Next you'll need to pull out the terms to work with the beginning of the problem. 2(p+1)- 18= 0 would turn into 2p - 16 = 2(p - 8).
This would leave you with 2= 0, but that's not true so continue on to the variable.
So p - 8= 0 making the answer p = 8
