Answer:

15 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of wind = V_w = 4 mph

Speed of Jaime rowing = V_r

Speed of boat against wind = V_r-4.

Speed of boat with wind = V_r+4

Time taken with and against wind is same = t

Distance travelled with wind = 57 mph

Distance travelled against wind = 33 mph

time=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}

Time taken to go with wind

t=\frac{57}{V_r+4}

Time taken to go against wind

t=\frac{33}{V_r-4}

So,

t=\frac{57}{V_r+4}=\frac{33}{V_r-4}\\\Rightarrow \frac{57}{33}=\frac{V_r+4}{V_r-4}\\\Rightarrow 57V_r-33V_r-228-132=0\\\Rightarrow V_r=\frac{360}{24}\\\Rightarrow V_r=15\ mph

∴ Her normal rowing speed with no wind is 15 mph

Aleks [24]

It would be 30 because 10^4 is 10000 and 10000 times 12 is 120000 and 10^3 is 1000 and 1000 times 4 is 4000 so 120000 divided by 4000 is 30
