The rate of travel, or speed, is
200 miles
--------------- = 40 mph
5 hours
Recall that distance = rate times time, so that rate = distance / time.

Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how old Mrs. Roberts was when her son was born, we first need to know both of their ages. I'm going to give Mrs. Roberts the variable m and her son the variable s.
Let's turn the two sentences about their ages into equations:
m=Mrs. Roberts and 3s= three times as old as her son
m=3s
m+s is the sum of their ages
m+s=48
Now substitute the first equation into the second one:
m+s=48
(3s)+s=48
4s=48
s=12
The son is 12 years old. Now substitute s into one of the equations to solve for the mother's age:
m=3s
m=3(12)
m=36
Mrs. Roberts is 36. Since they are asking how old she was when her son was born, we will subtract her son's age from her age, since she would be 12 years younger:
36−12=24
Mrs. Roberts was 24 when her son was born.

From the question, we know that the solutions of the system
is (14,6), which means the speed of the the boat in calm water,
, is 14
, and the speed of the current,
, is 6
. To summarize:
and
We also know that w<span>hen the boat travels downstream, the current increases the speed of the boat; therefore to find the speed of the boat traveling downstream, we just need to add the speed of the boat and the speed of the current:
</span>
<span>
Similarly, to find the the speed of the boat traveling upstream, we just need to subtract the speed of the current from the speed of the boat:
</span>
<span>
We can conclude that the correct answer is </span><span>
C. The team traveled at 8 km per hour upstream and 20 km per hour downstream.</span>
Your answer would be C
