A river is flowing at the speed of 2 miles per hour. A kayaker moves 528 feet upstream in 20 minutes. At this rate, how fast wou
CaHeK987 [17]
D=rt
r=(boatrate+riverrate)=(x+2)mph

d=528ft=528/5280mi=1/10mi
t=1/3hr
remember to keep the same units
so

1/10=(x+2)(1/3)
times both sides by 3
3/10=x+2
minus 2 or 20/10
-17/10=x
-1.7=x
it would be going -1.7mph (means going backwards)

Consider the two triangles.
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

(A)Show that the ratios StartFraction U V Over X Y EndFraction , StartFraction W U Over Z X EndFraction , and StartFraction W V Over Z Y EndFraction are equivalent.

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{UV}{XY}

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangles WUV and XZY:

\angle VUW$ and \angle YXZ$ are congruent. \\\angle U W V$ and \angle X Z Y$ are congruent.\\ \angle U V W$ and \angle Z Y X$ are congruent.

Therefore:

\triangle UWV \cong  \triangle XZY

To show that the triangles are similar by the SSS similarity theorem, we have:

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{UV}{XY}

As a check:

\dfrac{UW}{XZ}=\dfrac{40}{32}=1.25\\\\\dfrac{WV}{ZY}=\dfrac{60}{48}=1.25\\\\\dfrac{UV}{XY}=\dfrac{50}{40}=1.25

The correct option is A.
