speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
let the rate in still water be x and rate of the current be y.
speed down the river is:
speed=distance/time
speed=14/2=7 mi/h
speed up the river is:
speed=(14)/(3.5)=4 mi/hr
thus total speed downstream and upstream will be:
x+y=7...i
x-y=4.......ii
adding the above equations i and ii we get:
2x=11
x=5.5 mi/hr
thus
y=5-5.5=1.5 mi/r
thus the speed in still waters is 5.5 mi/hr
speed of current is 1.5 mi/hr
Answer:
-1y or -y
Step-by-step explanation:
8-9 =-1

Answer:
Karen had 45 m and m's candy.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of m and m's candy be 'x'.
Now given:
Karen gave an equal amount of m and m's to herself and four friends.
So we can say that;
Number of people m and m's candy distributed equally = 5
Also Given:
Each person receives m and m's equivalent to the largest one digit number.
Now we know that;
Largest one digit number is 9.
So we can say that;
Each person receives m and m's = 9
We need to find number of m and m's Karen have.
Solution:
So we can say that;
Total number of m and m's Karen have is equal to Number of people m and m's candy distributed equally multiplied by number of m and m's can each person receives.
framing in equation form we get;
Total number of m and m's Karen had = 
Hence Karen had 45 m and m's candy.

Answer:
5x + 2y = 3280
x+y = 785
x = 785 - y
5*(785 - y) + 2y = 3280
3925 - 5y + 2y = 3280
3925 - 3280 - 3y = 0
645 = 3y
y=645/3=215
x=785-215 = 570
Adults - 570 tickets, childs - 215 tickets.
570*5 + 215*2 = 3280
570 adult and 215 child and 3,280 in total
