Answer:
Speed of river's current = 5 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'd' be the distance covered
Let x be the speed of the rivers current
Speed upstream = 15-x
speed downstream = 15+x
Time = distance / speed
time upstream = 
time downstream = 
the ferry trip upstream takes twice as long as its return trip downstream
= 
divide both sides by d
= 
cross multiply


Add 2x on both sideds

subtract 15 from both sides and divide by 3

x=5
Speed of river's current = 5 mph
Answer:
Solution given:
Y=90°
∠X=73°.
∠ZWY=80°
and XW=80.
ZY=?
We know that
In right angled triangle ∆ XYZ
Tan 73=
3.27=
3.27×[xy]=yz
xw+wy=
wy=
-80...........(1)
again
In right angled triangle WYZ
Tan 80=
5.67×wy=yz
wy=
yz=5.67×wy............................................(2)
