A motorboat travels 172 km in 3 hours going upstream and 372 in 4 hours going downstream. What is the rate of the boat in still water and what is the rate of the current?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The rate of the boat is 75.17 km/h and the rate of the stream is 17.83 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

Let's call:

B = speed (rate) of the boat in still water

S = speed (rate) of the stream

The boat travels 172 km in 3 hours when going upstream, that is when the speed of the stream subtracts its own speed. The speed is the distance divided by the time, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle B-S=\frac{172}{3}[/tex]

Multiplying by 3:

3B - 3S = 172        [1]

The boat travels 372 km in 4 hours downstream when the speed of the current adds to its own:

[tex]\displaystyle B+S=\frac{372}{4}=93[/tex]

B + S = 93

Solving for B:

B = 93 - S       [2]

Substituting in [1]

3(93 - S) - 3S = 172

Operating:

279 - 3S - 3S = 172

279 - 6S = 172

Subtracting 279:

- 6S = 172 - 279

- 6S = -107

Multiplying by -1 and solving for S:

[tex]S = \frac{107}{6}\approx 17.83\ km/h[/tex]

From [2]:

[tex]B = 93 - \frac{107}{6}[/tex]

[tex]B=\frac{451}{6}\approx 75.17\ km/h[/tex]

Answer:

(2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 2y = 2

5x + 2y = 12

2x + 5x = 7x

-2y + 2y = 0

2 + 12 = 14

7x = 14

7x/7 = 14/7

x = 2

2x - 2y = 2

2(2) - 2y = 2

4 - 2y = 2

-2y = 2 - 4

-2y = -2

-2y/-2 = -2/-2

You are kayaking at a pace of 63 feet every 12 seconds. Your friend's pace is 21 feet every 2 seconds. Are you and your friend kayaking at the same pace? If not, who is faster?

Answers

Answer:

Your friend is kayaking faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to approach this answer is by putting one of them in terms of the other. So that both are in terms of the same time. If you kayak 63 feet in 12 seconds how many feet do you kayak in 2 seconds? Simply divide by 6. 63/6 = 12/6. So, in 2 seconds (12/2) you kayak 10.5 feet (63/6). But your friend kayaks 21 feet in the same time... so he's going faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = -2

4x + y = -8

2x + y = - 2

y = -2x - 2

4x + y = - 8

y = -4x - 8

y = -2x - 2

y = -4x - 8

Use the figure to find the measures of the numbered angles. ∠5 = ∠6 =

Answers

Answer:

∠ 5 = 49°, ∠ 6 = 131°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 5 and 49° are corresponding angles and are congruent, then

∠ 5 = 49°

∠ 5 and ∠ 6 are adjacent angles and are supplementary, sum to 180° , that is

∠ 6 + ∠ 5 = 180°

∠ 6 + 49° = 180° ( subtract 49° from both sides )

∠ 6 = 131°

B. y =15x + 425

D. y =15.05x +475

Answers

Answer:

1. D

2. y = 15.50x + 450

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since it is a function, the missing pair can't repeat input values with different output, therefore only option D is unique so is the correct choice.

2. x  > (y - 450)/ 15.50

i) Rita gets paid $450 per week.

ii) She gets $15.50 for every new membership she sells.

iii) let y represent the total pay per week.

iv) let x represent the number of new memberships sold.

v) the equation representing total pay is y = 15.50x + 450.

vii) therefore the equation that represents a higher rate of membership sold is given by  x  > (y - 450)/ 15.50

We can model what both readings of this angle would be. Angle names are usually formed by taking the two lines that form to intersect this angle at a vertice, and these 3 make up the name.

Angle ∠CUT would be formed by the lines CU and UT. We can see that this is not the case, as the angle is formed by lines CU and CE.

Since they intersect at point U, that means the angle name would be CUE.

The base of a traingular field is twice its altitude , If the cost of levelling the field , at the rate of rupess 10 per m2 is rupees 4,000 , find it base and altitude

Answers

Answer:

Base=40m and

Altitudes=20m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the field can be calculated as

Area= total cost / rate

Where total cost= 4,000 rupees

Rate= 10 per m2

Area of the field= 4000/10

= 400m^2

Let the altitudes be denoted as "x metre"

Then the base = 2x

Area= 1/2bh

Where b= base

h= altitudes

Then if we substitute we have

400m^2= 1/2× x × 2x

400= x^2

x= √400

x=20m

Then altitudes = 20m

the base = 2x= 2×20=40m

Hence, it base and altitude are 40m and 20m respectively.

2. Addition and subtraction are done from left to right.
3. Addition and subtraction are done before multiplication and division.
4. Exponents are the first operation to be completed.

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication comes before division. To add or subtract we can do from left to right by thousand, hundred, or any respective place value thus options (1) and  (2) are correct.

What is the arithmetic operator?

Arithmetic operators are four basic mathematical operations in which summation, subtraction, division, and multiplication involve.,

Summation = addition of two or more numbers or variable

Subtraction = Minus of any two or more numbers with each other called subtraction.

Using the PEMDAS rule,

Parenthesis = 1st

Exponents = 2nd

Multiplication = 3rd

Divide = 4th

Addition = 5th

Subtraction = 6th

Suppose an addition,

120 + 320

Now add from left to right,

100 + 300 = 400

20 + 20 = 40

Now, 400 + 40 = 440

Thus, adding from left to right is true.

Hence "Multiplication comes before division. To add or subtract we can do from left to right by thousand, hundred, or any respective place value ".

Let the number of quarters be y

coin coins coin coins

-------------------------------------------

nickels x $0.05 $0.05x

quarters y $0.25 $0.25y

-------------------------------------------

TOTALS 52 ----- $3.60

The first equation comes from the second column.

x + y = 11

The second equation comes from the last column.

0.05x + 0.25y = 3.60

Get rid of decimals by multiplying every term by 100:

5x + 25y = 360

So we have the system of equations:

x+y=52

5x+25y=360

We solve by substitution. Solve the first equation for y:

x + y = 52

y = 52 - x

Substitute (52 - x) for y in 5x + 25y = 360

5x + 25(52 - x) = 360

5x + 1300 - 25x = 360

-20x + 1300 = 360

-20x = -940

x = = 5 the number of nickels.

Substitute in y = 52 - x

y = 52 - (5

y = 47 quarters.

The number of quarters is 52-x or 52-5 or 47 quarters.
