Option e: associative property of addition
Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7
let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)
time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)
⇒⇒⇒ divide by d
1/(x-7)
= 3/(x+7)
x+7
= 3(x-7)
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14
So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
1:3 can be another ratio of black fish to white fish
Point-slope form is written as : y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is the point.
The slope (m) is found by the change in Y over the change in X
Slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
You can use either given point for x1 and y1 so you would calculate the slope and replace m with the slope, then replace x1 and y1 in the equation with their value.
