The trip back the boat will travel only 30 miles because the trip doubled the hrs.

In still water it takes him 3 hours to travel 30 miles.
That is 10 m/h
Going back it took him 6 hours which means he travelled at 5 m/h.
To slow him done by 5 m/h the current had to flow at 5 m/h

Hope this helps :)

Find the area of a parallelogram if a base and corresponding altitude have the indicated lengths. Base 1 1/2 feet, altitude 6 in

Butoxors [25]

Area of a parallelogram = A =base*height

so in this case is just (1½)(6).

first off let's convert the mixed fraction to "improper",

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{3}{2}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{2}\cdot 6\implies \cfrac{18}{2}\implies 9$
