Tema [17]

Answer:

$t=\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve for the value of t in the equation

$4(t+\frac{1}{4})=3$

Since we are trying to make t the subject of the formula (or isolate t)

Divide both sides by 4

$\dfrac{4(t+\frac{1}{4})}{4} =\dfrac{3}{4}$

This gives us:

$t+\frac{1}{4} =\frac{3}{4}$

Next, we subtract $\dfrac{1}{4}$ from both sides

$t+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4} =\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\\t=\dfrac{3-1}{4}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}\\t=\frac{1}{2}$

It takes a ship 4 hours to cover 420 km with the current and 6 hours against the current. Find the speed of the ship in still wa

KiRa [710]

Let s be the speed of the ship, and c be the speed of the current.

We know that distance equals speed multiplied by the time.

With the current
$\left(s+c\right)\left(4\:hours\right)=420\:km$
or
$s+c=105$
This is our first equation.

Now, against the current, we have
$\left(s-c\right)\left(6\right)=420$
or
$s-c=70$
This is our second equation.

We solve the equations simultaneously, by adding them together
$2s-0c=175$

$s=87.5\:km/hr$

Substitute s=87.5 to the first equation to solve for c.
$87.5+c=105$

$c=17.5\:km/hr$

The speed of the ship is 87.5 km/hr and the speed of the current is 17.5 km/hr.
