Jesse is traveling up and down a stream in a kayak. He can paddle the kayak at an average rate of 5 miles/hour, and the round-trip is a total distance of 16 miles. When c is the speed of the current, this expression can be used to find the difference of the time it takes Jesse to travel upstream (against the current) and downstream (with the current).



Find the difference in simplest form.

Respuesta :

The time it takes = 3 hours 12 minutes

What is rate?

Rate is a ratio which compares two quantities of different units.

Analysis:

Speed = 5 miles/hour

distance covered = 16 miles

speed taken = distance covered/time taken

time taken = 16/ 5 = 3.2 hours = 3 hours 12 minutes
