5y+2x = -7~~~~~......(i)\\\\y = -2x +5 ~~~~~~.....(ii)\\\\(i) -(ii):\\\\5y+2x -y = -7-(-2x+5)\\\\\implies 4y +2x = -7 +2x -5\\\\\implies 4y +2x -2x = -12\\\\\implies 4y = -12\\\\\implies y = - \dfrac{12}4 = -3\\\\\\\text{Substitute}~ y=-3~ \text{in equation (ii):}\\\\\\-3 = -2x +5\\\\\implies 2x = 5 +3 \\\\\implies 2x = 8\\\\\implies x = \dfrac 82 =4\\\\\text{Hence,}~ x = 4

If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph, and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, what is the rate of the boat
BigorU [14]

Answer:

a)27-x

b)27+x

Step-by-step explanation:

when a boat travels in the same direction as the current is downstream-->speeds the boat. If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, the rate of the boat when the boat is going downstream is 27+x

when a boat travels against the current is upstream-->slow down. If the rate of the boat in still water is 27 mph and the rate of the current of a river is x mph, the rate of the boat when the boat is going upstream is 27-x

18x^2+21x-9 I need to figure out how to work this problem
shtirl [24]
18x^2+21x-9=3(6x^2)+3(7x)-3(3)\\\\=3(6x^2+7x-3)=3(6x^2+9x-2x-3)\\\\=3[3x(2x)+3x(3)-1(2x)-1(3)]\\\\=3[3x(2x+3)-1(2x+3)]\\\\=\boxed{3(2x+3)(3x-1)}
