The answer:
<span>the two triangles are similar
in addition, the line UV is parallel to line BC, so we can use the theorem of Thales for proving the following ratios:
AV /AC = AU/ AB= UV/ BC
372/589=20x +80 / AB = 444 / 703
</span>so we get (372/589) AB - 80 = 20x, and x = ( (372/589) AB - 80 ) / 20
exact value of x depends on the value of AB
Answer:
Klorina's rate in still water is 4.5 km/h
Current's rate is 0.5 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x km/h = Klorina's rate in still water
y km/h = current's rate
<u>With the current (current helps):</u>
Distance = 10 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x + y km/h

<u>Against the current:</u>
Distance = 8 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x - y km/h

Divide both equations by 2:

Add these equations:

Subtract these two equations:

Answer:
