I believe the answer is 142.09
To answer this item, we have 4 as the speed of the kayaker in still water and the speed of current be y.
When the karayaker moves upstream or against the current, his speed would be 4 - y. Further, if he moves downstream or with the current, the total speed would be 4 + y. The time utilized for the travel is equal to the ratio of the distance and the speed.
Total time = 9/(4 - y) + 9/(4 + y) = 6
We multiply the equation by (4-y)(4+y)
9(4-y) + 9(4 + y) = 6(4-y)(4+y)
Simplifying,
72 = 96 - 6y²
Transposing all the constants to only one side of the equation and rearranging,
6y² = 96 - 72
y² = 4
y = 2
Hence, the speed of the river's current is 2 miles/hr. <em>The answer is letter B.) 2 miles/hour.</em>
The correct answer is "Draw a straight line from D to M". In order to draw a perpendicular line to line KDE you need to create two acrs that intersect above or below KDE. This is illustrated by the point M. This is the point that will create a perpendicular line and intersect KDE at a 90 degree angle.
3/8
1/4=2/8 so 1/8 + 2/8 is 3/8
