Distance =  speed * time
Upstream
d = 5 * (x - 3)
Downstream
d = 3.5(x + 3)        where d = distance beween piers  and x =  speed of the boat
    Equating:-
5x - 15 = 3.5x + 10.5
1.5x = 25.5
so x =   17 mph 

so d = 5(17) - 15 = 85-15  = 70 miles Answer

9.5 miles, I think. (If not, I'm sorry!)

A specimen of aluminum having a rectangular cross section 10 mm 12.7 mm (0.4 in. 0.5 in.) is pulled in tension with 35,500 N (80
miskamm [114]

Answer:

\epsilon = 3.958\times 10^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Young's Module of Aluminium is E = 69\times 10^{9}\,Pa. The axial stress on the specimen is:

\sigma = \frac{F}{A_{t}}

\sigma = \frac{35500\,N}{(0.01\,m)\cdot (0.013\,m)}

\sigma = 2.731\times 10^{8}\,Pa

The strain is derived of following expression:

\epsilon = \frac{\sigma}{E}

\epsilon = \frac{2.731\times 10^{8}\,Pa}{69\times 10^{9}\,Pa}

\epsilon = 3.958\times 10^{-3}

You have to choose 6 members from the group of 35 people. So there are \binom{35}{6} ways to do it.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

The correct statement for the given function is:

f(x) is an even function for all even values of m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct statement for the given function is:

f(x) is an even function for all even values of m.

The given function(x^m+9)^2 is a quadratic equation. The term Quadratic means the variable gets squared. if m is an even number, that would result also to an even function....
