Aboat travels upstream on the allegheny river for 2hours. the return trip only takes 1.7 hours because the boat travels 2.5 miles per hour faster downstream due to the current. how far does the boat travel in one day?

= 28.332 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance= speed × time

The distance in this problem would be the same up or downstream

Let the speed be x upstream and ( x +2.5) downstream

2x = 1.7 (x+2.5)

0.3x = 1.7 (2.5)

X = 14.166

Now multiply by 2 to fund the distance one way

Distance = 14.166×to

= 28.332 miles

step-by-step explanation:

ok one would be money, and the other would be refreshments or something similar. if each bag of popcorn is 5.00 and each drink is half of that that means drinks are 2.50 the proper way to do that would to look and see how much of each you can buy without exceeding a limit of 30.00
