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 cube has a volume of 800 cubic units. the length of the edge of this cube is between which two numbers?
8090 [49]
I set this up as an inequality, 800 \leq  s^{3}.  If you take the cubed root of 800, you get the lower bound of the side length, which is 9.2.  Then I just worked my way up until I hit the first number that put me over a volume of 800.  That number is 9.29, because 9.28 cubed is 799.1 (not high enough) and 9.29 cubed is 801.8.  Therefore, the bounds of the sides exist within a conjunction: 9.2\ \textless \ s\ \textless \ 9.29.  That's the best I could come up with to help on that one.  Wasn't sure if there was another method you were taught at school. I just used common sense more than any rule.

Answer:

$5.4 Million

3.2 mill/x = 60/100

3.2 mill x 100 = 60x

320 mill = 60x

x = 5.3333 million, rounded up to 5.4 million
