Answer:

  • boat: 6 mph
  • current: 2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between time, speed, and distance is ...

  speed = distance/time

For boat speed b and current speed c, the speed downstream is ...

  b +c = (16 mi)/(2 h) = 8 mi/h

The speed upstream is ...

  b -c = (16 mi)/(4 h) = 4 mi/h

Adding the two equations eliminates the c term:

  2b = 12 mi/h

  b = 6 mi/h . . . . . divide by 2

Solving the second equation for c, we get ...

  c = b -4 mi/h = 6 mi/h -4 mi/h = 2 mi/h

The speed of the boat in still water is 6 mi/h; the current is 2 mi/h.

The cone-shaped container for the echidna treats holds to 218 cubic centimeters of ants and has a radius of 4 cm. rounded to the
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

13 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, you can use the formula to calculate the volume of a cone and isolate the height:

V= πr^2\frac{h}{3}

V= volume= 218 cubic centimeters

π= 3.14

r= radius= 4 cm

h=height

218= 3.14*4^2*\frac{h}{3}

218*3=3.14*16*h

654=50.24*h

h=654/50.24

h=13

According to this, the height of the container is 13 cm.

If six angles of a heptagon have measures of 122, 153, 168, 105, 162, and 87, what is the measure of the seventh angle?
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

he seventh angles measure is 103

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angles = (number of side in the polygon - 2) times 180.

So Heptagon interior angles = (7-2)(180) = 900

To find the missing angles add all the given angles together (122, 153, 168, 105, 162, and 87) = 797.

Now   The measure of the seventh angles = total angles measure - the six given angles,

  The seventh angles measure is 103  

   900 - 797 = 103
