Let the speed of the boat be x
so going against the current the speed is x-7
going with the current the speed is x+7
let the distance be d
time = distance / speed
time to go against the current = d/(x-7)
time to go with the current = d/(x+7)
time going against the current is 3 times going <span>with the current
</span>
d/(x-7) = 3d/(x+7)
⇒⇒⇒ divide by d
1/(x-7)
= 3/(x+7)
x+7
= 3(x-7)
x+7 = 3x - 21
2x = 28
x = 14
So, the speed of the boat in still water is = 14 mph
Answer:
He saved 58 last month.
Step-by-step explanation:
All expenses: 625 + 259 = 884
Total earned: 942 - 884 = 58
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Arc LM = 13x - 10
Arc MN = 7x - 10
Required:
Solve for x
Solution:
Recall: half a circle = 180°
Therefore,
Arc LM + Arc MN = 180°
13x - 10 + 7x - 10 = 180
Add like terms
20x - 20 = 180
20x - 20 + 20 = 180 + 20
20x = 200
20x/20 = 200/20
x = 10
I’m sorry, I don’t know perpendicular but I would love to help.
Its 43 pushups cause the number of pushups are going up by 3
