Answer:
14 knots
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the speed (55 knots) is 6 more than 3.5 times the winner of the monohull in the 2007 tournament.
So let's set the variable for the speed of the monohull to <em>m</em>. Now, let's set up an equation:

We can solve this by first subtracting 6 from both sides to get:

Dividing both sides by 3.5 we get:

That means that the top speed of the monohull in the 2007 tournament was 14 knots
Answer:
6: 12
7: 14
8: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
You do the last (y) term given [18] minus the first (y) term [10] given divided by how many terms it takes to get from the last (y) term given minus the first (y) term given [4]. So the equation looks like this:
(18 - 10)/4= 8/4 = 2
5 because 25 divided by 5 is 5
Answer:
3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
$12 = 2hours
Find how much Clare was paid for one hour
Total money earned ÷ number of hours = wage per hour
12 ÷ 2 = $6 per hour
set up equation
6x = 18
This equation says 6 dollars an hour × number of hours = $18
To solve for this equation, divide both sides by 6 (this isolates the variable)
6x ÷ 6 = 18 ÷ 6
1x = 3
x = 3
Answer: 4 + 16i
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
(2 + 2i)(5 + 3i)
= 2(5 + 3i) + 2i(5 + 3i) <em>combine the two factors by multiplication</em>
= 10 + 6i + 10i + 6i² <em>distribute</em>
= 10 + 6i + 10i + 6(-1) <em>substitute -1 for i²</em>
= 4 + 16i <em>add like terms (6i + 10i) </em>
