A boat covers 25 km upstream and 44 km downstream in t hours. Also, it covers 15 km upstream and 22 km downstream in 5 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water and that of the stream.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
boat speed: (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500)
stream speed: (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500)
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
The boat speed (b) is added to the stream speed (s) going downstream. The stream speed is subtracted going upstream. The given relations tell us ...
25/(b-s) +44/(b+s) = t
15/(b-s) +22/(b+s) = 5
This gives us 2 equations in 3 unknowns, so we can only provide a solution in terms of one of the unknowns. Since we are asked for the speeds, they will be provided in terms of t.
Subtracting the first equation from 2 times the second gives ...
2(15/(b-s) +22/(b+s)) -(25/(b-s) +44/(b+s)) = 2(5) -(t)
5/(b-s) = 10 -t
5/(10 -t) = b -s
Substituting for b-s in the second equation gives ...
15/(5/(10-t)) +22/(b+s) = 5
30 -3t +22/(b+s) = 5
22/(b+s) = 3t -25
22/(3t -25) = b+s
Adding the equations for the sum and difference of speeds, we get ...
(b-s) +(b+s) = 5/(10-t) +22/(3t -25)
2b = (5(3t -25) +22(10 -t))/((10-t)(3t-25)) = (95 -7t)/((10-t)(3t-25))
b = (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500)
Subtracting the equations for sum and difference of speeds, we get ...
(b+s) -(b-s) = 22/(3t -25) -5/(10 -t)
2s = (22(10-t) -5(3t -25))/((10-t)(3t-25))
s = (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500)
__
The speed of the boat in still water is (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500) km/h.
The speed of the stream is (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500) km/h.
__
Note that these solutions only make sense for values of t between 25/3 and 345/37, approximately 8.33 < t < 9.32. For t=9 hours, the boat speed is 8 km/h and the stream speed is 3 km/h.
When ringing up a customer, a cashier needs 10 seconds to process the payment as well as 5.7 seconds to scan each item being purchased. Write an equation that shows the relationship between the items being purchased, p, and the time, t.
Answer: 5.7p + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are given the information that when ringing up a customer, the cashier will need 10 seconds to process the payment and 5.7 seconds to scan every item that are purchased.
The equation that shows the relationship between the items being purchased, p, and the time, t will then be:
= 5.7p + 10

Use the information from the graphs to write the equation in y=ab*^x
Answer:
1). y = 4(1.75)ˣ
2). y = (2)ˣ
Step-by-step explanation:
1). Let the equation of the given exponential graph is,
y = a(b)ˣ
Graph of the given equation passes through two points (0, 4) and (0+1, 4+3)
For point (0, 4),
4 = a(b)⁰
a = 4
For point (1, 7),
7 = 4(b)¹
b = [tex]\frac{7}{4}[/tex]
b = 1.75
Therefore, equation of the function is,
y = 4(1.75)ˣ
2). Similarly, equation of the second graph will be same in the form of
y = a(b)ˣ
Second graph passes through the points (0, 1) and (2, 4)
For (0, 1),
1 = a(b)⁰
a = 1
For (2, 4),
4 = 1(b)²
b = 2
Therefore, exponential function representing the graph will be,
y = 1(2)ˣ
y = 2ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:
The way I would think about this question is this: because Jordan only wants to work a maximum of 40 hours, he can work 40 hours or less. Which is described as an equation in the top equation of letter A. And because he also wants to make $250 or more, the bottom equation in A would work as well.
I hope that makes sense! Please ask me in the comments if you want more explanation on it

Sandra signed up for the gym during the spring special. Her credit card was charged $220.87. Is this the correct amount? Explain. A sign that says workout jazz spring special. Sign up now and get 12 months for just 16 dollars and 99 cents per month asterisk. The asterisk is given as paid in advance.
Answer:
No, this is not a correct amount. The correct amount is $203.88
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the credit card amount is shown below:
Given that
The credit card is $220.87
But if we calculate the credit card amount, so it would be
= 12 months × 16.99
= $203.88
hence, the credit amount is $203.88
And, the given amount is wrong
So, the correct amount is $203.88

7. Jerry has 23 coins in nickels, n, and dimes, d. He
has $1.95 altogether. How many nickels does Jerry
have?
Answer:
17 nickles !
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify the variables:
n = amount of nickels
d = amount of dimes
Next, setup the equations based on what you know. The first equation is:
n + d = 28
For the second equation, we know that a dime is worth 10¢ and a nickel is 5¢, so it should be:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
This a three-step answer:
In one formula (you can use any of them; most people use the simplest one), single out the variable on one side
Apply the first formula into the second formula, and solve it to get the value of one variable
Apply the answer from the second formula into the first formula, and solve it to get the value of the other variable
======
Step One:
n + d = 28
n + d - d = 28 - d
n = 28 - d
Step Two:
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * (28 - d)) + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 - 0.05d + 0.10d = 1.95
1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95
1.40 - 1.40 + 0.05d = 1.95 - 1.40
0.05d = 0.55
d = 11
Step Three:
n = 28 - d
n = 28 - 11
n = 17
======
Your answer should be 17 nickels and 11 dimes.
You can double check by applying the variables into both formulas.
n + d = 28
17 + 11 = 28
28 = 28
0.05n + 0.10d = 1.95
(0.05 * 17) + (0.10 * 11) = 1.95
0.85 + 1.10 = 1.95
1.95 = 1.95
I hope this helped.

Help ASAP, ACD and DCB form a linear pair
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
because 180- 140 = 40
a linear pair means they equal 180
The measure of angle ACD (∠ACD) is 40 degrees.
Given that angles ACD and DCB forms a linear pair, also m ∠DCB = 140°,
We are asked to find the measure of ∠ACD,
So,
If angles ACD and DCB form a linear pair, it means that their sum is equal to 180 degrees.
Let's denote the measure of angle ACD as x.
So, we have the equation:
m∠ACD + m∠DCB = 180°
Substituting the given value for m∠DCB:
x + 140° = 180°
To solve for x, we can subtract 140° from both sides of the equation:
x = 180° - 140°
x = 40°
Therefore, the measure of angle ACD (∠ACD) is 40 degrees.
