Julie and Eric row their boat (at a constant speed) 55 miles downstream for 5 hours, helped by the

Archy [21]

Answer: C = 3 mph is the rate of the current.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

You can use the distance formula (d = rt) to solve this problem.

Downstream trip: d = 55 miles, t = 5 hours, and r = R + C

R + C is their rowing speed (R) plus the rate of the current (C).

Upstream trip: d = 55 miles, t = 11 hours, and r = R - C

R - C is their rowing speed (R) minus the rate of the current (C).

Downstream: 55 mi. = (R + C)5 hrs. Divide both sides by 5: R + C = 11

Upstream: 55 mi. = (R - C)11 hrs. Divide both sides by 11: R - C = 5

Calculations

R + C = 11 Subtract C from both sides.

R = 11 - C Substitute this into: R - C = 5

(11 - C) - C = 5 Simplify and solve for C

11 - 2C = 5 Add 2C to both sides.

11 = 2C + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.

6 = 2C Divide both sides by 2

C = 3 mph is the rate of the current.

lighting if a 25-foot-tall house cast a 75-foot shadow at the same time that a streetlight casts a 60-foot shadow how tall is th

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The street light is 20 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.

25/x = 75/60 Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply

75x = 60 * 25 Combine the right

75x = 1500 Divide by 75

x = 1500/75

x = 20

The street light is 20 feet tall.

antoniya [11.8K]

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

You can check your answer by making sure that each of the primes you found is actually a prime. (Compare to a list of known primes, for example.) After you have determined your factors are primes, multiply them together to see if the result is 73. If so, you have found the correct prime factorization.

Additional comment

73 is prime, so its prime factor is 73.

73 = 73
