Answer:
w = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-6(w - 4) + 8W=6(w + 2)
-6w + 24 + 8w = 6w + 12
2w + 24 = 6w + 12
12 = 4w
3 = w
Dup= 72 miles
<span>ddown= 120 miles </span>
<span>v= riverspeed </span>
<span>rup= 32mph - v </span>
<span>rdown= 32mph + v </span>
<span>t both ways= t </span>
<span>d=r*t </span>
<span>d/r=t </span>
<span>t=ddown/rdown </span>
<span>t=dup/rup </span>
<span>dup/rup = ddown/rdown </span>
<span>(72)/(32-v)=(120)/(32+v) </span>
<span>3840-120v=2304+72v </span>
<span>1536=192v </span>
<span>v=8</span>
Step 1: Create Equation: 12+15+x=55
Step 2: Solve it: you will get x=28
Step 3: You could check it by plugging your answer in.
Hope that helps!!!
