It takes 3 hours to paddle a kayak 12 miles downstream and 4 hours for the return trip upstream. Find the rate of the kayak in s

Furkat [3]

The rate of the kayak in still water is 3.5 mph

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that It takes 3 hours to paddle a kayak 12 miles downstream

Distance covered in downstream = 12 miles

Time taken to cover downstream = 3 hours

Also given that it takes 4 hours for the return trip upstream

Distance covered in upstream = 12 miles

Time taken to cover upstream = 4 hours

Formula to remember:

If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then: Speed downstream = (u + v) km/hr and Speed upstream = (u - v) km/hr

Let the speed of Kayak in still water = x mph

And The speed of current = y mph

For downstream:

Speed downstream = x + y

We know that $speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

$\frac{distance}{time} = x + y$

$x + y = \frac{12}{3}$

x + y = 4 ------ eqn 1

For upstream:

Speed upstream = x - y

$\frac{12}{4} = x - y$

x - y = 3 -------- eqn 2

Now let us eqn 1 and eqn 2

Add eqn 1 and eqn 2

x + y + x - y = 4 + 3

2x = 7

x = 3.5

speed of Kayak in still water = x mph = 3.5 mph

58. 122. 61. None of the choices are correct

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

C. 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Two sides are equal, so the triangle is an isosceles triangle.

Both base angles are equal.

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

58 + x + x = 180

58 + 2x = 180

2x = 122

x = 61

patriot [66]

Grapefruit=108

Orange=100

Apple=90

a) (108-90)/90*100 = 18/90*100=20%

b) (108-90)/108= 18/108*100=16 2/3%
