Let 'x' be the distance from THE far bank where 700 is the distance to the NEAR bank
boat one has travelled 700 (rate = 700/unit time) boat two has travelled x rate = x / unit time
boat one then travels x + 400 more and boat two travels 700 + (700+x -400) more when they meet
The time is the same rate x time = distance distance/rate = time equate the distances divided by the respective rates
(700 + x + 400)/700 = ( x + 700 + (700+x-400) )/x
1100x + x^2 = 1400x + 700000
x^2-300x -700000 = 0 quadratic formula yields x = 1000
One boat travels 700 the other 1000 whe they first meet.....width of river = 700+ 1000 = 1700 m
C- is either a or c

Answer:
28 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
133 miles/285 minutes = 133 miles/4.75 hours = 28 miles/hour
Answer:
v > -25/p
r = -5 +7/3 w
Step-by-step explanation:
- pv + 40 < 65
Subtract 40 from each side
- pv + 40-40 < 65-40
-pv < 25
Divide each side by -p (remember to flip the inequality since we are dividing by a negative)
-pv/-p > 25/-p
v > -25/p
7w - 3r = 15
Subtract 7w from each side
7w-7w - 3r = 15-7w
-3r = 15-7w
Divide by -3
-3r/-3 = (15-7w)/-3
r = -5 +7/3 w
Answer:
lets call the children, c, and call adult, a,
c+a= 52 eq 1: a=52-c
c=3a eq 2
take a's value from eq 1 and plug it into eq 2
c=3(52-c)
c=156-3c
4c=156
c=39 the number of children that attended the ball game.
