A boat covers a certain distance downstream in 3 hrs and the same distance upstream in 5 hrs. If the speed of the boat in still water is 8km/hour, find the speed of the stream.


help me please I am struggling to solve this question​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The stream's speed is 2 km/hr. We don't need to know the distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the stream's speed = x

rate * time = d

The distance is the same going upstream as it is coming back down stream.

d_upstream = d_downsteam

(8 + stream)*3 = (8 - stream)*5

(8 + x)*3 = (8 - x)*5                    Remove the brackets

24 + 3x = 40 - 5x                      Subtract 24 from both sides.

3x = 40 - 24 - 5x

3x = 16 - 5x                               Add 5x to both sides

3x + 5x = 16

8x = 16                                      Divide by 8

x = 16/8

x = 2

Answers

Answer:

Third option: (1, 0), (2, 0), and (–3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts are the points at which the graph of the function crosses the x-axis.

By reading the question, we can see that:

"... crosses the x-axis at (negative 3, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 0)..."

So the x-intercepts are:

(1, 0)

(2,  0)

⇒ [(x² - 3x - 10) / (x + 3)] / [(2x² - 7x - 15) / (x² - 9)]

Simplify the expression, then we have

⇒ [(x² - 3x - 10) / (x + 3)] / [(2x² - 7x - 15) / (x² - 9)]

⇒ [(x² - 3x - 10) (x² - 3²)] / [(2x² - 7x - 15) (x + 3)]

⇒ [(x² - 5x + 2x - 10) (x - 3)(x + 3)] / [(2x² - 10x + 3x - 15) (x + 3)]

When solving any expression or equation, we must go through the order of operations. The order of operations is a set of rules that tell us which operation we must do first. The set of rules is often represented by the acronym PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction.

Solving:

Let's go through the order of operations to solve the expression, so we can see the mistake in the steps.

(24 + 3 + 10) - 14 + 2

1. Add 24 and 3 together

(24 + 3 + 10) - 14 + 2(27 + 10) - 14 + 2

2. Add 27 and 10 together

(27 + 10) - 14 + 2(37) - 14 + 237 - 14 + 2

3. Subtract 14 from 37

37 - 14 + 223 + 2

4. Add 23 and 2 together

23 + 225

Now, let's compare these steps to the ones given.

There's a mistake in Step 1 because 24 and 3 was divided instead of added; 24 + 3 = 27, not 8.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the area of the shaded region, you'd find the area of the white rectangular shape, next, find the area of the whole triangular shape, then find the difference of their areas to get the area of the shaded region. Thus, the formula to use would be:

Area of shaded region = area of triangle - area of rectangle

Area of shaded region = ½*base*height - length*width

1. a. Volume of triangular prism = area of triangular base * height of prism

Volume of triangular prism = ½bh * H

Where,

b = 6 m

h = 4 m

H = 8 m

Substitute

Volume of prism = ½*6*4*8

Volume of prism = 96 m³

b. Volume of sphere = ⁴/3πr³

Where,

r = 9 cm

Substitute

Volume = ⁴/3*π*9³

Volume = ⁴/3*π*729

Volume ≈ 3,053.6 cm³ (nearest tenth)

2. Use Pythagorean theorem to find the height of the cone

radius of the cone (r) = ½(16) = 8 cm

Slant height (l) = 11 cm

height (h) = ?

Using Pythagorean theorem, we have:

h = √(l² - r²)

Substitute

h = √(11² - 8²)

h = √(57)

h ≈ 7.5 cm (nearest tenth)

b. Volume of the cone = ⅓πr²h

where,

r = 8 cm

h = 7.5 cm

Volume = ⅓*π*8²*7.5

Volume = 502.7 cm³ (nearest tenth)

The radius of a circle is 14cm. Find the radius of the circle whose area is double of the area of circle. ​

Answers

Answer:

14√2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of circle equation:

A = πr²

Let the radius of bigger circle is x.

We have:

π(14²)*2 = πx²

Solve for x:

x² = 2(14²)x = √2(14²)x = 14√2 cm

19.8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

First find area of small circle:

A = πr2

A = 22/7 x 14 x 14

A = 22 x 2 x 14

A = 616cm2

Area of bigger circle is double that of the small circle:

= 616 x 2

= 1,232 cm2

πR2 = A

22/7 x r2 = 1,232

r2 = (1,232 x 7) ÷ 22

r2 = 8624 ÷ 22

[tex] \sqrt{r ^{2} } = \sqrt{392} [/tex]

radius of bigger circle = 19.8cm

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the area of a pentagon(regular) given 1 side is

A = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}s^{2}\)[/tex]

s (the side) = 12

Area = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}12^{2}\)[/tex]

Area = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}144\)[/tex]

Area = sqrt(5(5 + 2*2.2361) * 36

Area = sqrt(5( 5 + 4.4721)) * 36

Area = sqrt(5*9.4721) * 36

Area = sqrt(47.3606) * 36

Area = 6.882 * 36

Area = 247.7485

The area of the circle = pi r*2 but we don't have r.

If you know any trig, the formula for the radius of the circle is

R = s/(2*sin(180)/n)     n = 5 because you are using a 5 sided figure.

R = 12/(2*sin(180/5)

R = 12/2* sin(36)

R = 6 / sin(36)

R = 10.207

So the area of the circle is pi * R^2

Area = 3.14 * 10.2078^2

Area = 327.1854

The area of the shaded part is the difference between the 2 areas we found

Answers

Answer:

A translation 2 units right and then a reflection over the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices of ΔRST are R(0, 0), S(-2, 3), and T(-3, 1)

The vertices of triangle ΔR'S'T' are (2, 0), (0, -3), (-1, -1)

The points are plotted with the aid of MS Excel, and by observation, we have that the image of ΔRST is located on the other side of the x-axis with each coordinate on ΔR'S'T' shifted 2 units to the right of ΔRST

A translation of ΔRST 2 units right gives;

(0 + 2, 0) = (2, 0), (-2 + 2, 3) = (0, 3), and (-3 + 2, 1) = (-1, 1), to give;

(2, 0), (0, 3), and (-1, 1)

A reflection of the point (x, y) across the x-axis gives (x, -y)

A reflection of the above points across the x-axis gives;

(2, 0) reflected about x-axis → (2, 0) reflected about x-axis → (0, -3), and (-1, 1)  reflected about x-axis → (-1, -1), which are the points of ΔR'S'T'

Therefore, the sequence of transformations that produces R'S'T' from RST are;
