Answer:

2.44706 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distance = rate * time

Rate of boat + rate of current = 4mph

If rate of current = c ;

Downstream:

85 = 4t

Upstream :

52 = (4 - c)t

85/4 = 52/(4 - c)

85(4 - c) = 52 * 4

340 - 85c = 208

-85c = - 132

c = 132 / 85

c = 1.55294

Rate of boat in still water :

4 - c

4 - 1.55294

= 2.44706 mph

Question

A complete question related to this found at brainly(question ID 2475535) is stated below.

Triangle ABC was dilated using the rule Dy, 5/4

If CA = 8, what is C'A'?

10 units

12 units

16 units

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Scale factor = 5/4

CA = 8units

Find attached the diagram for the question.

This is a question on dilation. In dilation, figures have the same shapes but different sizes.

Y is the center of dilation

Lengths of ∆ABC: CB, AB, CA

Lengths of ∆A'B'C': C'B', A'B', C'A'

C'B' = scale factor × CB

A'B' = scale factor × AB

C'A' = scale factor × CA

C'A' = 5/4 × 8

C'A' = 40/4

C'A' = 10units (A)
