It takes a ship 3 hours to cover 72 km with the current and 4 hours against the current. Find the speed of the ship in still water and the speed of the current.

Answers

Answer 1
x- speed of the ship in still water
a- speed of current
(x+a)- speed with current
(x-a) - speed against current

(x+a)*3=72
(x-a)*4=72

      x+a=24
+    x-a=18
    2x    =42
      x = 21

x+a=24,    21+a=24,    a=3

The speed of the ship in still water = 21 km/h, 
the  speed of the current =3 km/h.
Answer 2

Answer:

ship  = 21 km/h,

current =3 km/h.

A square garden has an area of 64 square feet. What is the length of the garden?

Answers

Area = Length x Length

Area = Length²

Length² = 64

Length = √64

Length = 8 feet

Answer: 8 feet

The length of the garden will be 8 feet.

It should be noted that the area of a square is gotten by multiplying its lengths together. For example, the area of a square with length of 2cm will be: = 2 × 2 = 4cm²

Therefore, since the square garden has an area of 64 square feet, the length of the garden will be:

= ✓64

= 8 feet

Therefore, the length is 8 feet.

A company’s profit is modeled by the function p(x) = -2x2 + 60x − 2, where p is the profit in thousands of dollars and x is the number of units sold in hundreds. 

Based on the profit function, the company has to make ___ hundred units to make a maximum profit

Answers

Note:  Please write "x^2" (not 'x2') to indicate "the square of x."

p(x) = -2x2 + 60x − 2 is a quadratic function whose graph is that of an inverted parabola.  The vertex (which here represents the largest p(x) value) can be found using the formula 

x  = -b / (2a), which comes out to   x = -60 / (2*-2) = 15.

The company has to make 15 hundred units to gain maximum profit.

Final answer:

To find the number of units the company needs to sell to make maximum profit, we need to find the vertex of the parabola represented by the profit function. The vertex can be found using the formula x = -b / (2a), where a and b are the coefficients of the quadratic function. In this case, the company needs to sell 1500 units to make a maximum profit.

Explanation:

The profit function is given as p(x) = -2[tex]x^2[/tex] + 60x - 2, where p is the profit in thousands of dollars and x is the number of units sold in hundreds. To find the quantity that yields the maximum profit, we need to find the vertex of the parabola represented by the profit function. The x-coordinate of the vertex can be found using the formula x = -b / (2a), where a and b are the coefficients of the quadratic function. In this case, a = -2 and b = 60. Plugging these values into the formula, we get x = -60 / (2*(-2)) = 15. Since x represents the number of units sold in hundreds, the company needs to sell 1500 units to make a maximum profit.

Subtract a-4 from 4a+16 and simplify your answer. The variable a should appear only once in your answer.

Answers

Subtracting from a number means removing from a term.

So we set it up as (4a+16)-(a-4)

Now we distribute the - to a and -4.

So now it is 4a+16-a+4

Combine the like terms to get 4a-a+16+4

So your answer is 3a+20

Subtracting a-4 from 4a+16 and then simplifying the expression will be 3a + 20.

This is a simple expression and we have to subtract a-4 from 4a+16 and then simplify the answer. This will be:

(4a + 16) - (a - 4)

= 4a - a + 16 + 4

= 3a + 20

In conclusion, based on the calculation above, the answer is 3a + 20.

A blackboard has an area of 28ft2 and a perimeter of 22 ft. What are the dimensions of the board?

Answers

2[L + W] =22

L*W = 28

W = 28/L sub this in the first equation

Solve for L:

2 (L + 28/L) = 22

Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides by 2:

L + 28/L = 11

Write the left hand side as a single fraction.

Bring L + 28/L together using the common denominator L:

(L^2 + 28)/L = 11

Multiply both sides by a polynomial to clear fractions.

Multiply both sides by L:

L^2 + 28 = 11 L

Move everything to the left hand side.

Subtract 11 L from both sides:

L^2 - 11 L + 28 = 0

Factor the left hand side.

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(L - 7) (L - 4) = 0

Find the roots of each term in the product separately.

Split into two equations:

L - 7 = 0 or L - 4 = 0

Look at the first equation: Solve for L.

Add 7 to both sides:

L = 7 or L - 4 = 0

Look at the second equation: Solve for L.

Add 4 to both sides:

L = 7       or L = 4         and        W=4      or W = 7

A sphere and a cylinder have the same diameter. The height of the cylinder is equal to its diameter. Which shape has a greater volume?

Answers

The cylinder has a greater volume than the sphere when both have the same diameter and the cylinder's height is equal to its diameter, as the formulas for their volumes show that V_cylinder > V_sphere.

The question asks which shape has a greater volume: a sphere with the same diameter as a cylinder or a cylinder where the height is equal to the diameter. To solve this, we need to compare their volumes using mathematical formulas.

The volume of a sphere with radius r is given by V_sphere = (4/3) * π * r^3. Since the diameter of the cylinder is the same as the diameter of the sphere, we can use the same value for r, where r is half of the diameter.

The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h (which, in this case, is also 2r) is calculated as V_cylinder = π * r^2 * h. For the cylinder, since h = 2r, we substitute to get V_cylinder = π * r^2 * (2r) = 2 * π * r^3.

Comparing the two volumes, it is clear that the volume of the cylinder (2 * π * r^3) is greater than that of the sphere ((4/3) * π * r^3). Therefore, the cylinder has a greater volume than the sphere when both shapes have the same diameter and the cylinder's height is equal to its diameter.

Parker was able to pay for 44% of his college tuition with his scholarship.

What was the total cost of Parker's college tuition?
Round your answer to the nearest dollar.
Tuition cost = $_

Answers

The total cost is $17,955.

Let x be the total amount of his tuition.  He paid for 44% of it, or 0.44, with his scholarship. This leaves 100%-44% = 56% = 0.56 of it to be taken care of with loans.  We know he took out 10054.52 in loans:

0.56x = 10054.52

Divide both sides by 0.56:
0.56x/0.56 = 10054.52/0.56
x = 17954.50 ≈ 17955
Final answer:

The total cost of Parker's college tuition, rounded to the nearest dollar, is $17,952.

Explanation:

If Parker was able to pay for 44% of his total college tuition with his scholarship, this means that the $10,054.52, which he paid using his student loan, represents the remaining 56% of his tuition cost. Therefore, to find the total cost of tuition, we need to divide the amount he paid with a loan by 0.56. Performing this calculation gives us:

$10,054.52 / 0.56 = $17,952.00

Therefore, the total cost of Parker's tuition rounded to the nearest dollar is $17,952.

hopes this helped you well
may i please have the brainliest
have a wonderful day or night

Final answer:

Email was invented 26 years after the completion of the first recognized computer in 1945.

Explanation:

The first computer is often attributed to the work carried out during World War II, with machines like ENIAC, completed in 1945, incorporating vacuum tubes and filling entire rooms. However, the question references a machine called ROACH, which seems to be a typo or a misunderstanding; we usually refer to ENIAC as one of the first computers. Email, on the other hand, was invented in 1971 by Ray Tomlinson. Calculating the difference between the years when the first computer was completed and when email was invented gives us the number of years it took for email to be developed after the advent of the computer.

To find this, we subtract the year the first computer was completed, 1945, from the year email was invented, 1971:

1971 (the year email was invited) - 1945 (the year the computer was completed) = 26 years.

Email was invented 26 years after the completion of the first computer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the system of equation:

[tex]y = -2x+4[/tex]            ....[1]

[tex]y=x^2+4x+13[/tex]         ....[2]

Equate the equation [1] and [2] we have;

[tex]-2x+4 = x^2+4x+13[/tex]

Add 2x to both sides of an equation:

[tex]4 = x^2+6x+13[/tex]

Subtract 4 from both sides we have;

[tex]0= x^2+6x+9[/tex]

or

[tex]x^2+6x+9=0[/tex]

Using perfect square:

[tex](x+a)^2 = x^2+2ax+a^2[/tex]

⇒We can write the equation as:

[tex]x^2+2 \cdot 3x+3^2=0[/tex]

then;

[tex](x+3)^2 = 0[/tex]

⇒[tex]x+3 = 0[/tex]

Subtract 3 from both sides we have;

x = -3

Substitute value of x in [1] we have;

[tex]y = -2(-3)+4[/tex]

⇒[tex]y =6+4=10[/tex]

Solution for the given system of equation = (-3, 10)

Therefore, the  y-coordinate of the solution is, 10
