The speed of current will be "4.5 mph" and the rate Pratap can row in still water will be "8.5 mph".

What does "speed" mean in mathematics?

  • Speed is what it means. the speed of a change in an object's location in any direction.
  • Speed is defined as the ratio of distance to the amount of time it took to cover that distance.
  • Speed is a scalar quantity because it just has a direction and no magnitude.

Given:

Distance "26 miles" in time "2 hours".

Let,

Speed of water = y

Pratap speed when rowing in still water = x

As we know,

      Speed = distance/time

then,

  x + y = 26/2

  x + y = 13

 x = 13 - y

In return trip took him time "6.5 hours",

       x - y = 26/6.5

      x - y = 4

By substituting the value of "x", we get

 13 - y - y = 4

  13 - 2y = 4

     2y = 13 - 4

        2y = 9

          y = 9/4 = 4.5 mph (Rate of the current)

By substituting the value of "y", we get

    x = 13 - a

   x = 13 - 4. 5 = 8.5 mph (Pratap can row in still water)
