C. 6/10 + 1/10 =7/10
Answer:
56.3 kilometers per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We know D = RT
where
D is distance
R is rate (speed)
T is time
Let's Bill's rate be "x". Thus using equation we can write:
D = xt
We know Eugene travelled 21.1 faster than Bill, so Eugene's rate is 21.1 + x. So we can write:
D = (21.1 + x)t
D = 21.1t + xt
Now, putting t = 1 in both since after 1 hour given, we have:
D = x(1)
D = x
and
D = 21.1(1) + x(1)
D = 21.1 + x
We know the sum of both the distance is 133.7, so we can write:
x + 21.1 + x = 133.7
Solving for x:
2x = 133.7 - 21.1
2x = 112.6
x = 112.6 / 2
x = 56.3 km/hr
This is Bill's rate: 56.3 kilometers per hour
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- The speed of the boat in the lake = x
- The speed of the current = 3 km/h
<u>Required equation:</u>
- 54 / (x + 3) + 42 / (x - 3) = 96/x
- 9x(x - 3) + 7x(x + 3) = 16(x + 3)(x - 3)
- 9x² - 27x + 7x² + 21x = 16x² - 144
- 6x = 144
- x = 144/6
- x = 24 km/h
Answer:
A) 555
Step-by-step explanation:
555/3 = 185
Check and make sure; 185 x 3 = 555
Hope this helps!
