A piece of rope is cut into three lengths in the ratio 7:2:5 if the smallest length is 1.48m find the length of the longest piece of rope and the length of the original rope

Samantha swam upstream for some distance in one hour. she then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 12 minutes. if the river flows at 4 mph, how fast can samantha swim in still water?

Asmall (but heavy) particle placed in a glass of water will follow a zigzag motion because the particle will bounce off of the water molecules it meets. this is called brownian motion. a physicist simulates this on a computer, by varying the distance a particle can travel (called the mean free length), on average, before it collides with a water molecule and assigning the change in motion to be one of 8 directions, each with a similar probability. by running the simulated particle (with the same mean free length) many times she determines that it should take 15 seconds, on average, for the particle to fall to the bottom, with a standard deviation of 1.5 seconds. next she lets a real particle fall through a glass of water and finds that it took 18 seconds. what does she conclude, and why?

Leo has b boxes of pencils. each box contains 6 pencils. he has a total of 42 pencils. the equation that represents this situation the value of b that makes the equation true the first one is b+6=42,6b=42,b=42+6,or 42b=6 the second one are 7,836 48
