This is the working of how it is 28% discount

Find the amount of discount : $125 - $90 = $35
Divide by the original price : $35/125 = 0.28
Change in to percentage : 0.28 x 100 = 28%

Therefore the percentage discount is 28% off

impeded by the current the outing club took 4 hours and 24 minutes to paddle 11 km up the exeter river to their campsite last we
lilavasa [31]

Answer: if there had been no current, the rate would have been 4 km/hr.

The rate of the current is 1.5km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the boat in still water.

Let y represent the speed of the current.

Impeded by the current the outing club took 4 hours and 24 minutes(4 + 24/60 = 4.4 hours) to paddle 11 km up the exeter river to their campsite last weekend. This means that the total speed with which they travelled is (x - y) km/h

Distance = speed × time. Therefore

11 = 4.4(x - y)

Dividing through by 4.4, it becomes

2.5 = x - y - - - - - - - - - - -1

The next day the same current was with them and it took only 2 hours to make the return trip to campus. This means that the total speed with which they travelled is (x + y) km/h. The distance travelled is

11 = 2(x + y)

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

5.5 = x + y - - - - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 to equation 2, it becomes

8 = 2x

x = 8/2 = 4

Substituting x = 4 into equation 1, it becomes

2.5 = 4 - y

y = 4 - 2.5

y = 1.5
