If a boat goes down stream 72 milesind upstream 60 miles in 6 hours, the rate of the river and the rate of the boat in still water respectively are

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Speed of boat in still water = 11 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance / time

or

Distance= Speed * time

Let s be speed of the boat upstream and r be the speed of the river.

Then

Upstream speed=  s- r = 60/6= 10 miles per hour

Downstream speed= s+r= 72/6= 12 miles per hour

Therefore

s-r= 10--------- equation A

s+r= 12--------- equation B

Adding equation A and Eq. b

s-r= 10--------- equation A

s+r= 12--------- equation B    

2s    = 22                            

or

s= 22/2= 11 miles per hour.

Speed of boat in still water = 11 miles per hour.

What is right rectangular prism?

"It is a prism whose all faces are rectangles."

What is the volume of rectangular prism?

The volume of a rectangular prism with length l, width w and height h is,

V = l × w × h

What is the volume of cube?

The volume of a cube having side length 'a' is given by,

[tex]V=a^3[/tex]

For given example,

The dimensions of a right rectangular prism are:

length : [tex]l=2\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]l=2.17[/tex] in.

width: [tex]w=1\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]w= 1.17[/tex] in.

height : h = 1 in.

So, the volume of a right rectangular prism would be,

⇒ V = l × w × h

⇒ V = 2.17 × 1.17 × 1

⇒ V = 2.5389 cu. in .

Now, the side lengths of a cube : [tex]a=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]a=0.17[/tex]

So, the volume of a cube would be,

⇒ [tex]V=a^3[/tex]

⇒ V = (0.17)^3

⇒ V = 0.0049

Let, 'n' cubes are needed to fill the right rectangular prism without gaps or overlaps.

volume of a right rectangular prism = n × volume of a cube

⇒ 2.5389 = n × 0.0049

⇒ 2.5389/0.0049 = n

⇒ n = 518.14

⇒ n ≈ 518

Therefore, 518 cubes are needed to fill the right rectangular prism without gaps or overlaps

Multiply the second equation by 2, then add the equations together.

(4x-y=-5)

2(-2x+3y=10)

Becomes:

4x-y=-5

-4x+6y=20

Then add the equations to eliminate x.

5y=15

then solve 5y-15 for y. (Divide both sides by 5)

5y/5 = 15/5

y= 3

Okay, now we have found y where going to plug it in an equation to solve for x

Going to chosse equation : 4x-y=-5

Subsitue 3 for y in 4x - y = - 5

4x - 3 = -5

( Add 3 to both sides)

4x - 3 + 3 = - 5 + 3

4x = -2

(Divide both sides by 4 )

4x/4 = -2/4

Exactly how much pizza crust would be left of a 16" pizza if only of the pizza was eaten for dinner?

Answers

The question is incomplete and the value or fraction of the amount of fraction of pizza eaten for dinner isnt Given. Assume the fraction of pizza eaten for dinner = p

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem above;

Amount of pizza eaten for dinner = (fraction eaten * total size of pizza)

Amount of pizza eaten for dinner = 16 * p = 16p

Amount of pizza crust left :

(Total size of pizza crust - Amount of pizza eaten for dinner)

Amount of pizza crust left = 16 - 16p

Note that this is just an hypothetical solution because the value represented as p was omitted in the question.

Simply substitute p in the solution with it's exact value to obtain the exact amount of pizza crust left.

La semana pasada Lol hizo en su pastelería 32kg de bollos de distintas clases. Un cuarto de los bollos de los bollos los vendió a 9 € y el resto a 8,50 € el kilo. Cuanto recaudo en total por la venta ?

Answers

Answer:

$276  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Last week Lola made 32kg of different kind of bun

The quarter of the bun sold at $9 per kilo

And, the rest would be sold at $8.5 per kilo

We need to find out the amount that should be collected in total from the sale

A quarter of the 32 buns is 8 buns

And, the half of 32 is 16, and half of 16 is 8.

Now If he sold those 8 buns for $9

So, the total amount is

= (8 buns) ($9)

= $72

Now the remaining buns left is

= 32 - 8

= 24 buns

It would be sold at $8.50

So, the total amount is

= (24) ($8.50)

= $204

Now the final amount is

= $204 + $72

= $276

The exponent function of the graph will be W.  Then the correct option is D.

What is an exponent?

Let b is the base and x is the power of the exponent function and a is the leading coefficient. The exponent is given as

y = a(b)ˣ + c

Where c is the intercept.

Let the leading coefficient will be 1.

Then the equation will be

y = (b)ˣ + c

The exponent function has a y-intercept at (0, 3).

Then the exponent function is given as,

y = (b)ˣ + 2

Some points regarding exponent function.

The exponent function remains positive for the real value of the x.If the value of x approaches to the negative infinity, then the function tends to zero.If the value of x approaches to the positive infinity, then the function tends to infinity.At x = 0, the function interset the y-axis at (0, 3).

The exponent function of the graph will be W.

Then the correct option is D.

Answers

It either 20 or 25 percent. 25 is the 300 increase of 1200

The percentage change or increase of dessert sales has changed by 25%.

What is the percentage?

A percentage is a value per hundredth. Percentages can be converted into decimals and fractions by dividing the percentage value by a hundred.

Given, In the month of January, you were able to sell 1,200 desserts and

In February, your dessert sales increased to 1,500.

So, The net amount increase is (1500 - 1200) = 300.

Now to obtain percentage change we'll divide the net amount change by the original amount and multiply it by 100% which is,

= (300/1200)×100%.

= (300/12)%.
