Answer:

1 3/5 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the speed of the current

Let D be the distance between Chan's house and the park

We know that Distance, D, is = Speed x Time

-----

Chan's speed going upstream is (8 - C)mph.

That gives us:

D = (8-C)(3 hr)

Chan's speed going downstream is (8+C)mph

So we have:

D = (8+C)(2 hr)

We know that the d is the same for these two equations, so:

(8-C)(3 hr)  = (8+C)(2 hr)

24 - 3C = 16 + 2C

5C = 8

C = (8/5) or 1 3/5 mph

Answer:

  1.6 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance, speed, and time are related by ...

  distance = speed × time

We assume that the distances up and back are the same, so for a current speed of c, we have ...

  3(8 -c) = 2(8 +c)

  24 -3c = 16 +2c . . . eliminate parentheses

  8 = 5c . . . . . . . . . . add 3c-16 to both sides

  c = 8/5 = 1.6 . . . . . divide by 5

The speed of the current is 1.6 miles per hour.

angle EFG and angle GFH are a linear pair, m angle GFH= 2n+38 and m angle GFH=2n+38. what are m angle EFG and m angle GFH
motikmotik

Answer:

Part 1) m∠EFG=94°

Part 2) m∠GFH=86°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

m∠EFG+m∠GFH=180° -----> by linear pair (given problem)

we have

m∠EFG=3n+22

m∠GFH=2n+38

substitute the values

(3n+22)°+(2n+38)°=180°

Solve for n

(5n+60)=180

5n=180-60

5n=120

n=24

<em>Find the measure of angle EFG</em>

m∠EFG=3n+22

substitute the value of n

m∠EFG=3(24)+22=94°

<em>Find the measure of angle GFH</em>

m∠GFH=2n+38

substitute the value of n

m∠GFH=2(24)+38=86°
