A boat takes 8 hours to go 6 miles upstream and come back to the starting point. If the speed of the boat is 4 miles per hour in still water, what is the rate of the current? Hint: total time taken = time taken to go upstream + time taken to go downstream

`"Time taken to go upstream" = "distance"/"speed of boat in still water + rate of current"`

`
`

`"Time taken to go downstream" = "distance"/"speed of boat in still water - rate of current"`

answer:

your answer is: c. 196 7/8 in^3.

faster, im not sure why but i know it is faster

answer: i ! the answer is   9000 seconds, also d

hope i

hi there

the slope is 1/3.

this is because from the y-intercept, you go up one, and you go to the right three, to get to the next exact point on the graph. this is known at the “rise over run.”

p.s. (if you need it).your y-intercept is -2, because that is the point on the graph where the line crosses the y-axis.

hope that : )
