Answer:
speed of the boat = 100 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = speed of the boat
upstream speed = x - 4
downstream speed = x + 4
time = 24/(x - 4) = 26/(x + 4)
Cross multiply:
24(x + 4) = 26(x - 4)
24x + 96 = 26x - 104
104 + 96 = 26x - 24x
200 = 2x
x = 100 mph
1. a+3a+4b=5b
2. a+3a=5b-4b
3. 4a=5b-4b
4. 4a=b
a=1/4b
(I think 1/4b is the answer) hope this helps :)
