Answer:
hope this can help you (^^)
Let
x--------> <span>the speed of the boat in mph
we know that
</span>going upstream the speed is x-7
<span>going downstream the speed is x+7
</span>
let the distance be d
<span>time to go upstream = d/(x-7) </span>
<span>time to go downstream = d/(x+7)
</span>
time going upstream is 3 times going downstream
so
<span>3d/(x+7) = d/(x-7) </span>
<span>divide by d </span>
<span>3/(x+7) = 1/(x-7) </span>
<span>3x-21 = x+7 </span>
<span>2x = 28 </span>
<span>x = 14
</span>
the answer is
<span>the speed of the boat in still water is 14 mph</span>
X-4y=-2
-x. -x
4y=-2-x
4y=x-(-2)
/4. /4
Y=4x+2/4
3x-y=5
-3x. -3x
-y=5-3x
-y=-3x+5
/-1. /-1
Y=3x-5
