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

Instructions : X,Y,and Z are midpoints. Find the length of each segment.​

Answers

Answer:

MZ = 10

ZO = 10

MO = 20

XZ = 9

YZ = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles are all the same, proportionally.

X is midpoint of 14, so 7

Y for 18, so 9

Triangle with 10 is 7, 9, 10

Full triangle is double at 14, 18, MO

Since angle N is same angle, MO is double 10, so 20

Z is midpoint, so both halves are 10

Because of midpoints, XZ and YZ with 10 form same triangle as half triangle at 9, 7, and 10 respectively.

In ΔABC, ∠A = 50° and the external bisectors of ∠B and ∠C meet at O as shown in figure. The measure of ∠BOC is

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at Triangle ABC, The rays meet at line BC and they are both from the interior point A. So this means that AB=AC. This makes ABC a isosceles triangle. Using the isosceles triangle theorem, Angle B and Angle C measure is equal to each other so

[tex]50 + x + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]50 + 2x = 180[/tex]

[tex]2x = 130[/tex]

[tex]x = 65[/tex]

This means angle b and C of the triangle ABC measure is 65.

External bisector bisect a figure that it makes the original angle split into half that they are equal to each other.

This means the angle below Angle B and angle C measure is 32.5. We can find the measure of Angle B and C in triangle BOC. This is a isosceles triangle as well so

[tex]32.5 + 65 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]98.5 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]x = 81.5[/tex]

Angle C is 81.5 as well so

[tex]81.5 + 81.5 = 163[/tex]

Find angle o

[tex]180 - 163 = 17[/tex]

In order for a quadratic to have a vertical compression, what can be said of the a control
value

Answers

Answer:

The function will have a vertical compression when 0 < α < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a quadratic function showing the factors of the transformation of the function, is presented as follows;

[tex]f(x) = a \cdot \left(\dfrac{x}{c} - h \right)^2 + k[/tex]

The vertical scaling of the function (compression and stretching) is given by the value of the α control coefficient

A vertical stretch occurs when α > 1, while a vertical compression occurs when 0 < α < 1

Therefore, in order for a quadratic function to have a vertical compression, 0 < α < 1.

How do you calculate an antilog?
eg: antilog 2.1423​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  138.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Your scientific or graphing calculator will have exponential functions for bases 10 and e. On the calculator shown in the first attachment, they are shifted (2nd) functions on the log and ln keys. Consult your calculator manual for the use of these functions.

The value can be found using Desmos, the Go.ogle calculator, or any spreadsheet by typing 10^2.1423 as input. (In a spreadsheet, that will need to be =10^2.1423.) The result using the Go.ogle calculator is shown in the second attachment.

You can also use the y^x key or the ^ key (shown to the left of the log key in the first attachment). Again, you would calculate 10^2.1423.

__

We have assumed your log is to the base 10. If it is base e (a natural logarithm), then you use the e^x key instead. Desmos, and most spreadsheets, will make use of the EXP( ) function for the purpose of computing e^( ). You can type e^2.1423 into the Go.ogle calculator.

_____

Additional comment

There are also printed logarithm tables available that you can use to look up the number whose log is 0.1423. You may have to do some interpolation of table values. You should get a value of 1.3877 as the antilog. The characteristic of 2 tells you this value is multiplied by 10^2 = 100 to get the final antilog value.

The logarithm 2.1423 has a "characteristic" (integer part) of 2, and a "mantissa" (fractional part) of 0.1423.

It takes 5 minutes for 10 people to drink 25 pints of water. At this rate, how long would it take 15 people to drink 155 pints of water

Answers

Answer:

the time taken for the 15 people to drink 155 pints is 20.67 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

10 people took 5 mins to drink 25 pints of water

[tex]The \ rate\ for \ 10 \ people = \frac{25 \ pints }{5 \ mins} = 5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\The \ rate \ for \ 1 \ person = \frac{5}{10} \ \frac{pints}{\min} = 0.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\The \ rate \ for \ 15 \ people = 15( 0.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} )= 7.5 \ \frac{pints}{\min} \\\\Time \ taken \ for \ the \ 15 \ people \ to \ drink \ 155 \ pints = \frac{155 \ pints}{7.5 \ pints/ \min} \\\\= 20.67 \min[/tex]

Therefore, the time taken for the 15 people to drink 155 pints is 20.67 min.

Using the table, we can deduce that:

Using addition rules:

The '1' in the 11 moves and is added to the 'ones' place.

The '1' in the 16 moves and is added to the 'hundredths' place.

Thus,

8+1 . (1+1) (6)
