Let the boat speed in still water be b.
Let the current speed be c.
The speed going upstream is 20/4 = 5 mph.
The speed going downstream is 32/4 = 8 mph.
b - c = 5 ........(1)
b + c = 8 .......(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:
2b = 13
b = 13/2 = 6.5
Plugging in the value for b into equation (1) we find c = 1.5.
The boat speed in still water is 6.5 mph and the current speed is 1.5 mph.
#4 a is 0.4 four tenths b is 0.40 forty hundredths you know cuz four tenths is equivalent to forty tenths and each square/unit equals 1 hundreth c is 4/10 or 40/100 or 2/5 d is either 0.4 or 0.40 #5 is you can say that decimals are fractions and are equivalent and you could write something like 29/100 is 0.29
Answer:
11.5 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
It’s a 4 by 6 rectangle, so the total is 24. Then subtract the three little triangles on the outside. (Much easier than doing the main triangle).
1/2x1x4=2
1/2x1x6=3
1/2x3x5=7.5
2+3+7.5=12.5
24-12.5=11.5
