Answer:
Klorina's rate in still water is 4.5 km/h
Current's rate is 0.5 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x km/h = Klorina's rate in still water
y km/h = current's rate
<u>With the current (current helps):</u>
Distance = 10 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x + y km/h

<u>Against the current:</u>
Distance = 8 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x - y km/h

Divide both equations by 2:

Add these equations:

Subtract these two equations:

6x + 4y = 12...subtract 6x from both sides
4y = -6x + 12 ...divide both sides by 4
(4/4)y = (-6/4)x + 12/4...reduce
y = -3/2x + 4 <== y = mx + b
The LCD of 1/17 and 3/14 is 14.
1/7 = 2/14
3/14 = 3/14
2 + 3 = 5
The denominators are the same, so it will remain the same.
= 5/14 <===
5/14 is your answer.
