Answer:
12 cm = 21.62 miles
6 cm = 11.04 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the distance, set up a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. We form the ratios by using corresponding values. We write a ratio of
and simplify.
We know
. We know the distance on the map is 12 cm and 6 cm whish converts to 4.7 inches and 2.4 inches. We can write
and
We set them equal.
and
To solve each proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

and

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.
