Answer:
Find a line which also has 3/4 as the slope or 3x - 4y in standard form.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the line is 3x - 4y = 1 then the line which is parallel will have the same coefficients of x and y. Parallel lines never cross and to ensure this have the same slope. The slope is a ratio which can be solved for in an equation using the coefficients of x and y. Here the slope is:
3x - 4y = 1
-4y = -3x + 1
y = 3/4x - 1/4.
Find a line which also has 3/4 as the slope or 3x - 4y in standard form.
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:
B = speed of the boat in still water
C = speed of the current
Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.
How do we find the two equations we need?
Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).
Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)
The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! <u>Distance=(Rate)(Time) </u>Now solve using the systems of equations!
