Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find two things-- the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current. Each of these things will be represented by a different variable:
B = speed of the boat in still water
C = speed of the current
Since we have two variables, we will need to find a system of two equations to solve.
How do we find the two equations we need?
Rate problems are based on the relationship Distance = (Rate)(Time).
Fill in the chart with your data (chart attached)
The resulting speed of the boat (traveling upstream) is B-C miles per hour. On the other hand, if the boat is traveling downstream, the current will be pushing the boat faster, and the boat's speed will increase by C miles per hour. The resulting speed of the boat (traveling downstream) is B+C miles per hour. Put this info in the second column in the chart. Now plug it into a formula! <u>Distance=(Rate)(Time) </u>Now solve using the systems of equations!
What is 9 *divided* by three
what do you get when you *divide* 26 by 7
the most common word ive seen is divide
The penny can land two ways.
The nickel can land two ways.
The dime can land two ways.
The quarter can land two ways.
The total number of ways that all of them can land is (2x2x2x2)= 16 possibilities.
Only ONE result shows no heads . . .
TAIL-TAIL- TAIL-TAIL.
All of the other 15 possibilities include at least one HEAD. So the probability is 15/16 = 93.25% .

We are given with the coordinates of one of the points of a line which is
(1,2)
In order to generate an equation of a line, we need at least one other point or the slope of the line. If we are given with the slope of line, we can use the point slope form which is
y - y1 = m (x - x1)
substituting
y - 2 = m(x - 1)
