Answer: the speed of the current is 0.6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the current.
James is kayaking. He can row 3 mph in still water. If he can travel 6 miles downstream. Assuming he went with the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 + x)
Time = distance/speed
Time taken to travel downstream is
6/(3 + x)
In the same amount of time, he can travel 4 miles upstream. Assuming he went against the current, it means that his total speed while travelling downstream is (3 - x). Time taken to travel upstream is
4/(3 - x)
Since the time is the same, then
6/(3 + x) = 4/(3 - x)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
6(3 - x) = 4(3 + x)
18 - 6x = 12 + 4x
4x + 6x = 18 - 12
10x = 6
x = 6/10
x = 0.6 mph
Answer:
Location of W is - 23, location of X is - 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
location of V = - 16
Points W and X are each 7 units away from Point V.
Let the W is at left of V and X is right of V.
location of W = -16 - 7 = - 23
location of X = - 16 + 7 = - 9

Answer:
72°
Step-by-step explanation:
The external angle E is half the difference of subtended arcs CG and DF.
E = (CG -DF)/2
2E = CG -DF . . . . . . multiply by 2
DF = CG -2E = 160° -2(44°) . . . . . add DF-2E to both sides; substitute values
arc DF = 72°
