248,700
682 is closer to 700 than to 600
Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.
b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c
The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph
The literal equation for x = s=2r+3x
There no changes to the answer
Answer:
£83.70
Step-by-step explanation:
→ First step is to find the amount of hours it takes for one builder
We know it takes 5 builders hours so 1 builder would take 5 × which is hours so it takes one builder 17.5 hours to builder a wall
→ Now we know how long one work takes we need to find out the time for 2 builders
1 builder = 17.5 hours
2 builders = 17.5 ÷ 2 = 8.75 hours
So 2 builders take 8.75 hours
→ We know that each builder is paid £9.30 for each or part hour they work so
9.30 hourly pay rate × 9 hours work of work = £83.70
Each worker will be paid £83.70
9.045 is the number added to 0.034 to obtain 9.079
