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.

A good faith estimate is required by law to be given by the lender to the borrower within three days of submitting a loan applic
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: The loan estimate is standardized, and lists services you are allowed to shop for. You may not be able to shop for an appraisal fee or a credit report fee, but be able to shop for a land survey and title insurance. Lenders will vary in their requirements. Explanation: The Good Faith Estimate (GFE) was designed to encourage consumers to shop and then compare fees from various lenders before choosing a mortgage provider. Its original purpose was to help consumers understand what services they could shop for-so they not only received the lowest interest rate and best terms but saved significantly on closing costs as well.

If a wheelchair-marathon racer moving at 13.1 miles per hour expends energy at a rate of 645 calories per hour, how much energy
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

1290 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The racer moves at 13.1 miles per hour expends energy at a rate of 645 calories per hour.

To find: Energy in calories, required to complete a marathon race 26.2 miles at this pace.

Solution: We have,

The racer moves at 13.1 miles per hour.

The racer expends energy at a rate of 645 calories per hour.

So, energy expended while moving 13.1 miles =645 calories.

Now, energy expended while moving 1 mile =\frac{645}{13.1} calories.

So, energy expended while moving 26.2 miles =\frac{645}{13.1}\times 26.2=645\times 2=1290 calories.

Hence, 1290 calories of energy is required to complete a marathon race 26.2 miles at this pace.
