Answer:
3.9 mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
If the boy is rowing perpendicular to the current, the two vectors form a right triangle.
AB represents the downstream current, BC is the speed across the river, and AC is the ground speed of the boat
AC^2 = 2.4^2 + 3.1^2 =5.76 + 9.61 = 15.37
AC = sqrt(15.37) = 3.9 mi/h
The boat's speed over the ground is 3.9 mi/h.
