Answer:
- rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour
- rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.
Explanation:
<u>1) Name the two variables:</u>
- b: rate of the boat in still water:
With that, the net rates of the boat down the river and upstrean are:
<u>2) Now set the equations for the distance as a function of the times and the rates:</u>
- downstream: 18 miles = (b + c) × 2 hours
- upstream: 18 miles = (b - c) × 4.5 hours
<u>3) Set the system of equations:</u>
- 18 = 2(b + c) ⇒ 9 = b + c . . . Equation (1)
- 18 = 4.5 (b - c) ⇒ 4 = b - c . . . Equation (2)
<u>4) Solve the system by </u><u>elimination</u><u>:</u>
- Add equations (1) and (2): 9 + 4 = 2b
- Divide both sides by 2: 13/2 = b
- Replace b with 6.5 in equation (2) and solve:
4 = 6.5 - c ⇒ c = 6.5 - 4 = 2.5
<u>5) Results:</u>
- b = rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour
- c = rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.
The volume of the display is 900 cubic inches.
The formula for the volume of a prism is L x W x H.
In the small shape, we have: 5 x 5 x 12 = 300
In the large shape, we have: 5 x 5 x 24 = 600
Add them together and we have 900 cubic inches.
Answer:
BD = 4.99 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the triangle ABD only.
The angle formed is 31 degrees which occurs between two sides that are AD and BC.
We know that for a right angled triangle, the angle can always be taken as an angle between hypotenuse and base.
Thus, The perpendicular sides is then 3 units, where base is BD and Hypotenuse is AD
Using formula for tanθ
tanθ = Perpendicular/Base
tan31 = 3/BD
0.601 = 3/BD
BD = 3/0.601
BD = 4.99 units
Your answer for the girls in the gymnastics club is correct.
Do the percentage of water the same way: Divide 139 by 197.
That'll give you the decimal amount that's covered by water.
To change the decimal to a percentage, move the decimal point
two places that way ==> .
Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal, so angle 1 is the same as angle 4. That means angle 1 = angle 5 as well.
<span>When a line intersects two parallel lines, the corresponding angles are equal. That is, if r and s are parallel, then the angles formed when l intersects r are the same s the angles formed when l intersects s. Angle 1 = Angle 5, Angle 2 = Angle 6, and so forth. Since we know angle 1 = angle 5, so from that you can see that r and s are parallel</span>
