A boat takes 3.6 h to travel downstream from its dock to a fishing hole. If the water were still, it would have taken 4.5 h to m
salantis [7]
Given:

t1 = 3.6 h
t2 = 4.5 h
x = speed of boat
y = speed of water

Required:
a) Expression of distance traveled with moving water with 3.6h
     Expression of distance traveled with moving water with 4.5h
b) Solve for y
c) Percent of boat's speed is the water current

Solution:

Working formula: 
distance = velocity*time

a) For travelling downstream, we get the equation

d = (x +y)*3.6

For travelling upstream, we get the equation

d = (x-y)*4.5

b) Setting the distance as equal for travelling upstream or downstream, we arrive at the equation of

(x+y)*3.6 = (x-y)*4.5
3.6x + 3.6y = 4.5x - 4.5y
8.1y =0.9x
y = x/9

c) percentage = 1/9*100% = 11.1%

<em>ANSWERS: a) d = (x+y)*36; d = (x-y)*4.5
</em>
                     <em>b) y = x/9
</em>                     <em>c) 11.1%</em>

Best Answer

<span><span> x2-12x-45=0</span> </span>Two solutions were found :<span> x = 15 x = -3</span>

Step by step solution :<span>Step  1  :</span>Skip Ad
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

<span> 1.1 </span>    Factoring <span> x2-12x-45</span> 

The first term is, <span> <span>x2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -12x </span> its coefficient is <span> -12 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -45 </span>

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 1</span> • -45 = -45</span> 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -45  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is  <span> -12 </span>.

<span><span>     -45   +   1   =   -44</span><span>     -15   +   3   =   -12   That's it</span></span>


Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -15  and  3 
                     <span>x2 - 15x</span> + 3x - 45

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
                    x • (x-15)
              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
                    3 • (x-15)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
                    (x+3)  •  (x-15)
             Which is the desired factorization

<span>Equation at the end of step  1  :</span> (x + 3) • (x - 15) = 0 <span>Step  2  :</span>Theory - Roots of a product :

<span> 2.1 </span>   A product of several terms equals zero.<span> 

 </span>When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.<span> 

 </span>We shall now solve each term = 0 separately<span> 

 </span>In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product<span> 

 </span>Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 2.2 </span>     Solve  :    x+3 = 0<span> 

 </span>Subtract  3  from both sides of the equation :<span> 
 </span>                     x = -3 

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

<span> 2.3 </span>     Solve  :    x-15 = 0<span> 

 </span>Add  15  to both sides of the equation :<span> 
 </span>                     x = 15 

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly<span>Solving <span> x2-12x-45</span>  = 0 directly </span>

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex :

<span> 3.1 </span>     Find the Vertex of   <span>y = x2-12x-45

</span>Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).<span> 

 </span>Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.<span> 

 </span>Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.<span> 

 </span>For any parabola,<span>Ax2+Bx+C,</span>the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is   6.0000 <span> 

 </span>Plugging into the parabola formula   6.0000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :<span> 
 </span><span> y = 1.0 * 6.00 * 6.00 - 12.0 * 6.00 - 45.0 
</span>or   y = -81.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : <span> y = x2-12x-45</span>
Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={ 6.00} 
Vertex at  {x,y} = { 6.00,-81.00}  
 x -Intercepts (Roots) :
Root 1 at  {x,y} = {-3.00, 0.00} 
Root 2 at<span>  {x,y} = {15.00, 0.00}</span>

Could someone check my answer please
Butoxors [25]
Hello there! The axis of symmetry is the vertical line where the parabola can be divided and there are two equal halves. The vertex is on that line. The point where this occurs is all in the positive range, so that eliminates B, C, and D. (0.5, 4.25) is the vertex and 0.5 is the axis of symmetry. The answer is A. Your answer is correct.

Here are two sets of numbers, a and b. Set a :200,104,100,160. Set b: 270,400,483,300, x. Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8. Wor
LenKa [72]

Given:

The given sets are:

Set a : 200, 104, 100, 160.

Set b: 270, 400, 483, 300, x.

Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

Formula for mean:

Mean=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observation}}

The mean of set of a is:

Mean=\dfrac{200+104+100+160}{4}

Mean=\dfrac{564}{4}

Mean=141

The mean of set of b is:

Mean=\dfrac{270+400+483+300+x}{5}

Mean=\dfrac{1453+x}{5}

Mean=\dfrac{1453+x}{5}

It is given that,

Mean of set a: mean of set b= 3:8

\dfrac{141}{\dfrac{1453+x}{5}}=\dfrac{3}{8}

\dfrac{705}{1453+x}=\dfrac{3}{8}

8\times 705=3\times (1453+x)

5640=4359&#10;+3x

Isolate the variable x.

5640-4359&#10;=3x

1281&#10;=3x

Divide both sides by 3.

\dfrac{1281}{3}&#10;=x

427&#10;=x

Therefore, the value of x is 427.
