Aro diagrams his river rafting trip, estimating the time it will take him to paddle upstream against the current, and then back

downstream with the current. His campsite destination is 5.2 miles upstream. Determine how fast Aro can paddle and how fast the river water is moving.
Upstream:

Downstream:

Use the fact that d = rt to write the system of equations that represents the scenario. Let x be the speed of Aro’s paddling and let y be the speed of the river.



Upstream:

5.2 = ()



Downstream:

5.2 = ()

Mr.Hollins determines that he gives away $800 each month. If he gives away 16% of his budget, how much is his overall budget?

Functions f(x) and g(x) are shown: f(x) = x2 g(x) = x2 − 8x + 16 In which direction and by how many units should f(x) be shifted
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Shift right by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x)=x^2

g(x)= x^2-8x+16

Using

Horizontal Shift theorem dealing with the question

If the graph were to be move to to the right, we must use of graph f (x-L)

Where L= 4 and

NOTE:

POSITIVE L MAKES GRAPH SHIFT RIGHT

2) NEGATIVE MAKES GRAPH SHIFT LEFT

g(x)= x^2-8x+16

If we factorize this we have

(x-4)(x-4)

Since the two terms are the same we have (x-4)^2

Then it can move by factor of 4 to the right since constant 4 can be substracted from the parents function

Mike is mixing paint for his walls. He mixes 1/6 gallon blue paint and 5/8 gallon green paint in a large container. What fractio
dangina [55]
To find your answer you would need to add both colors(blue and green)
 to do this you need to make the denominators the same :

24 is a number we can get 8 and 6 to :
1×4=4
6×4=24

5×3=15
8×3=24

your new fractions are 4/24 and 15/24, now we can add them :

4+15=19
and 24 stays the same

your answer is 19/24 (you can not simplify this)

hope this helped

PLS HALP ME!!!!!! You have $6.50 to make copies. Each copy costs $0.45. Write and solve an inequality that represents the number
serious [3.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = number of copies

6.50 <= 0.45x

Divide both sides by 0.45

6.50 ÷ 0.45 <= 0.45x ÷ 0.45

14.4444.... <= x

No more than 14 copies

6.50 <= 0.45x

6.50 <= 0.45(14.444)

The region bounded by the given curves is rotated about the specified axis. Find the volume V of the resulting solid by any meth
Julli [10]

Answer:

V  = 23π/6

Step-by-step explanation:

V = 2π ∫ [a to b] (r * h) dx

y = −x² + 23x − 132

y = −(x² − 23x + 132)

y = −(x − 11) (x − 12)

Parabola intersects x-axis (line y = 0) at x = 11 and x = 12 ----> a = 11, b = 12

r = x

h = −x² + 23x − 132

V = 2π ∫ [11 to 12] x (−x² + 23x − 132) dx

V  = 23π/6
