The speed of the current in a certain stream is 6 mph. If a boat travels 94 miles
downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 47 miles upstream, which best
describes the speed of the boat in still water?

Answers

Answer 1

The speed of the boat in still water is 18 mph.

What is a numerical expression?

A numerical expression is a mathematical statement written in the form of numbers and unknown variables. We can form numerical expressions from statements.

We know distance = speed×time.

Therefore, time = distance/speed.

Let, The speed of the boat at still water be 'x'.

Therefore, From the information,

94/(x + 6) = 47/(x - 6).

94(x - 6) = 47(x + 6).

94x - 564 = 47x 282.

47x = 846.

x = 18.

So, The speed of the boat is 18 mph in still water.

The area of a rectangle is 20 square meters. The length of the rectangle is (x-3) meters and the
width of the rectangle is (x - 2) meters. Find the length and the width of the rectangle.



With steps and explanation please.

Answers

Answer:

length = 4 cm

Width = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle:

      Area of rectangle = length * width

length = (x - 3) meters

Width = (x - 2) meter

Area = 20 square meters

  (x - 3)*(x - 2) = 20

Use FOIL method.

   x*x + (x)(-2) + (-3)*x + (-3)*(-2) = 20

                         x² -2x  - 3x + 6 =20

         Combine like terms

                        x² - 5x + 6  = 20

Now subtract 20 from both side

                     x² - 5x + 6 - 20 = 0

                           x² - 5x - 14  = 0

Factorize the equation and find the roots

         Sum = -5

   Product = -14

    Factors =  (-7) , 2

When we add (-7) + 2 = -5 and when we multiply (-7)*2 = -14

x² + 2x - 7x - 14 = 0

 x(x + 2) -7(x + 2) = 0

 (x + 2)(x - 7)  = 0

  x - 7 = 0    {Ignore (x + 2 = 0) as measurements wont't be in negative}

x = 7

length = x - 3

          = 7 - 3

   [tex]\sf \boxed{\bf length = 4 \ cm}[/tex]

width = x - 2

         = 7 - 2

    [tex]\sf \boxed{\bf width = 5 \ cm }[/tex]

The height in feet, h, of a model rocket t seconds after launch is given by the equation h (t) = 3 + 70 t minus 16 t squared. The average rate of change in h(t) between t = 1 second and t = 3 second is 6. What does the average rate of change tell you about the rocket?
The rocket is traveling six times as fast when t = 3 than it is when t = 1.
The rocket is at a greater height when t = 3 than it is when t = 1.
The rocket is 6 feet higher above the ground when t = 3 than it is when t = 1.
The rocket is traveling at a constant rate of 6 feet per second between t = 1 and t = 3.

Answers

The average rate of change in h(t) is 6.

What is Average Rate of change?

It is a measure of how much the function changed per unit, on average, over that interval.

h(t) = 3 + 70t - 16t²

Average rate of change

At t = 1 second

h(1) = 3 + 70(1) - 16(1)^2

h(1) = 57

At t = 3 second

h(3) = 3 + 70(3) - 16(3)^2

h(3) = 69

Average rate of change = Δh / Δt

=[h(3) - h(1)] / (3 - 1)

= (69 - 57) / 2

= 12 / 2

= 6.

Hence, the rate of change is 6.

11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days. How many potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days?​

Answers

26 potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days.

Given: 11 potters can make 143 pots in 8 days.

Step 1:

1 potter makes  143 pots in 8 × 11 days.

1 potter can make 1 pot in

(8 × 11)/143 days.

Step 2:

Let the number of potters required be x, then

x potters can make 1 pot in (8 × 11)/( 143 × x) days

x potters can make 169 pots in (8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) days

Step 3:

The number of days given is 4. Hence equating the above equation to 4.

(8 × 11 × 169)/(143 × x ) = 4

Step 4:

Solve for x

14872/(143x) = 4

572x = 14872

x = 14872/572

x = 26

Thus, 26 potters will be required to make 169 pots in 4 days.

First Substitute x as -3 in f(x) and g(x) :-

f(x) = 5x - 1
f(-3) = 5(-3) - 1
f(-3) = -15 - 1
=> f(-3) = -16

g(x) = 2x^2 + 1
g(-3) = 2(-3^2) + 1
g(-3) = 2(9) + 1
g(-3) = 18 + 1
=> g(-3) = 19

Now Multiply f(-3) with g(-3) :-

= f(-3) * g(-3)
= -16 * 19
=> -304

Therefore, (f * g)(-3) = -304
