Section E

Attempt the following.

36. Case Study: A streamer covers a certain distance downstream in a

river in 5 hours. It covers the same distance upstream in 5 hours.

The speed of the stream is 1.5 km/hr.

38. Case study : Factoring is crucial in algebra as it helps simplify expressions. It is a fundamental skill that
lays the groundwork for more advanced algebraic concepts. Based on the factorization concept solve the real
life application.
