Speed is the ratio of distance travelled to time taken. It is given by:
Speed = distance / time
Let a represent the speed of the motor boat in still water and t represent the time. Hence for downstream:
a + 5 = 80/t
t = 80/(a + 5)
For upstream:
a - 5 = 60/t
a - 5 = 60 / (80/(a + 5))
a - 5 = 0.75a + 3.75
0.25a = 8.75
a = 35 miles per hour
The speed of the motor-boat in still water is 35 miles per hour.

Laura is going to invest in a business. There is a 50% chance that she will make $8000, a 40% chance that she will lose $4000, and a 10% chance that she will break even (make $0). What is the expected value for Laura's investment?
Based on the various probabilities of outcomes, the expected value of the investment is $2,400
The expected value can be calculated as:
= ∑ (Probability of event happening x Payoff if event happens)
The expected value here is therefore:
= (50% x 8,000) + (40% x -4,000) + (10% x 0)
= $2,400
In conclusion, the expected value is $2,400.

5x - 4
Solution of Problem 1:
2x + 8 = 28=> 2x = 28 - 8=> 2x = 20=> x = 10Solution of Problem 2:
82 = 5x - 4=> 82 + 4 = 5x=> 86 = 5x => x = 86/5=> x = 17.2Therefore:
Answer of Problem 1: x = 10Answer of Problem 2: x = 17.2Hoped this helped.

Suppose x=7 is a solution to the equation 4x-2(x+a)=8 how can you find the value of a that make the equation true
Answer:
a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = 7 is a solution, substitute x = 7 into the equation and solve for a
4(7) - 2(7 + a) = 8 , that is
28 - 2(7 + a) = 8 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
- 2(7 + a) = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
7 + a = 10 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
a = 3

HURRY!!!!
the value of function at n = 3 is f( 3 ) is - 10.
To find the value of f( 3 ), we can use the given recursive formula:
f(n) = f( n - 2 ) + f( n - 1 )
We already have the values of f(1) and f(2):
f(1) = - 6
f(2) = - 4
Now, let's apply the recursive formula to find f(3):
f(3) = f( 3 - 2 ) + f( 3 - 1 )
f(3) = f(1) + f(2)
f(3) = - 6 + (- 4)
f(3) = - 10
So, the value of f(3) is - 10.

Answer:
y = 5/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line, we'll have to find the slope only, since we already know that the equation is proportional and therefore has no y-intercept that we need to worry about.
So, to begin, we'll have to make a slope triangle using two of the points on the line - the points I chose are (0, 0) and (4, 5). Then, I drew a slope triangle - the change in y was 5, and the change in x was 4. To find the slope, we divide the change in y by the change in x, giving us a slope of 5/4. Because of this, our equation must be y = 5/4x.
Hopefully this is helpful! You can refer to the picture I attached if you would like to see how my slope triangle looks. :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 15
x = 12
The y intercept is zero so the slope is simply
m = y /x
m = 15/12
m = 5/4
The equation is
y = 5/4

Answer:
(1) x=15/2
(2) x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 4x−1 /2 =x+7
2x+ −1 /2 =x+7(Distribute)
2x+ −1 /2 =x+7
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
2x+ −1 /2 −x=x+7−x
x+ −1 /2 =7
Step 3: Add 1/2 to both sides.
x+ −1 /2 + 1 /2 =7+ 1 /2
x= 15 /2
(2) 3x+2=( 2x+13)/ 3
3x+2= 2 /3 x+ 13 /3 (Distribute)
3x+2= 2 /3 x+ 13 /3
Step 2: Subtract 2/3x from both sides.
3x+2− 2 /3 x= 2 /3 x+ 13 /3 − 2 /3 x
7 /3 x+2= 13 /3
Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.
7 /3 x+2−2= 13 /3 −2
7 /3 x= 7 /3
Step 4: Multiply both sides by 3/7.
( 3 /7 )*( 7 /3 x)=( 3 /7 )*( 7 /3 )

There is a row of 15 trees in a garden. Starting from the first tree, a gardener marked every second tree, then, on his way back, he marked the first tree, and then every third tree. How many trees are left without a mark?
Answer:2
Step-by-step explanation:
15/3 = 5
15/2 = 7.5
+1
= 13
15 - 13 = 2
=====================================================
Explanation:
The gardener starts at the first tree and then marks every second tree. So they'll skip a tree each time.
The set of trees he marks has the labels {1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15}. Basically it's the set of odd whole numbers between 1 and 15. Or you could notice that we add on 2 each time we need another tree to mark.
Then he goes back to the first tree and marks every third tree. So we have this new set: {1,4,7,10,13}. Start at 1 and add 3 each time to generate a new item.
Union the two sets mentioned and you'll get {1,3,4,5,7,9,10,11,13,15}
We see that the following trees aren't marked: {2,6,8,12,14}
There are 5 items in that last set.
Side note: The trees with labels {1,7,13} have been marked twice. There's a gap of 6 units between each adjacent label.
2x − 4y = -4 , 3x + 2y = 22 solve the system by elimination.
Answer: 5, 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x − 4y = -4
3x + 2y = 22
divide both sides of the equation by 2
x − 2y = -2
3x + 2y = 22
Eliminate one variable by adding the equation; sum the equations vertically to eliminate at least one variable
4x=20
Divides both sides by 4
x=5
Substitute the given value of x into the equation 2x-4y = -4
2*5-4y =-4
solve the equation for y
y=7/2

Suppose that 600 yards of fencing material are available to fence in
two adjacent rectangular corrals sharing a common fence. Find the
dimensions of the corrals that will enclose a maximum area (Please help)
Answer:
Length = 150 yards
Width = 100 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
We want 600 yards of fencing that will result in the largest 2 fenced corrals, sharing a common border.
It will take the shape of a rectangle, with a dividing fence down the center.
Let W and L, Width and Length of the larger enclosure.
See attachment.
W= Area of the larger enclosure.
The perimeter is 2W + 2L.
The dividing fence is 1W
We know that we only have 600 yards of fence, so:
2W + 2L + 1W = 600 yards
Area = W x L
---
3W + 2L = 600 (yards)
2L = 600 -3W
L = (600-3W)/2
L = 300 -(3/2)W
---
Use this expression in the Area calculation:
Area = W x L
Area = W x (300 -(3/2)W)
Area = 300W -(3/2)W^2)
To find the maximum area, take the first derivative and set to zero to find the value of W that results in the greatest area.
Area' = 300 -2(3/2)W)
0 = 300 - 3W
3W = 300
W = 100 yards
Since 3W + 2L = 600
L = (600 - 3W)/2
L = (600 - 3(100))/2
L = 150 yards
Area = 150*100 = 15,000 yards^2

Answer:
a. 54, b. 117, c. 63
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Angle 11 is corresponding to angle 1, which is linear to angle 2, which is 126 degrees. So angle 11 is 180 - 126 = 54 degrees
b. Angle 8 corresponds to angle 14, which is 117 degrees.
c. Angle 7 is linear to angle 8, so it is 180 - 117 = 63 degrees
Answer:
a or <11 is 54 degrees, b or <8 is 117 degrees, c or <7 is 63 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
A. <2 = <12, <12 + <11 = 180, 180 - 126 = 54
B. <14 = <8, 117 = 117
C. <7 + <8 = 180, 180 - 117 = 63

What is the solution to the system of linear equations graphed below?
Answer:
The first option so [tex](3\frac{1}{2}, -4)[/tex] is the answer
Skills required: Graphing Knowledge, Systems Knowledge
Step-by-step explanation:
1) The solution to any system is the intersection between any 2 lines or functions. In this case, we are given two functions on a graph, and need to find the solution to them. That is the intersection.
2) We can see the intersection and see that the x-axis value for the coordinate point is around 3 1/2 (or 3.5 -- whatever you prefer), and that the y-axis value for the point is -4.
Therefore, the coordinate point is: [tex](3\frac{1}{2}, -4)[/tex] since this answer best matches the coordinate values of that point.

Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
if u subtract negative nine from one side of the equation, in order to keep both sides of the equation equal, you must subtract 9 from the other side. moreover, if you subtract nine from one side and add 9 to the other, there will be a 9+9=18 difference in values of both sides
