Height:shadow
so 3.5:1.06 and is the same as 50.5:x
we treat it as a fraction and get
3.5/1.06 and x/50.5
they should be equal
we know that if we multiply two equal fractions, with one flipped, then we will get 1 exg 1/2=4/8 1/2 times 8/4=8/8=1
so 3.5/1.06=x/50.5 3.5/1.06 times 50.5/x=1
176.75/1.06x=1
multiply both sides by 1.06x
176.75=1.06x
divide both sides by 1.06
166.745=x
round up to hundreds place
166.75m=accutal height
I'm sorry I'm too lazy to read all of that. However, I did get the main point. The river was going at 3 mph. Since he wanted to travel 10 miles upstream and downstream, you would have to subtract 20 by 3. This would mean he was going at a speed of 17 mph.
