Aboater travels 27 miles per hour on the water on a still day. during one particularly windy day, he finds that he travels 42 miles with the wind behind him in the same amount of time that he travels 21 miles into the wind. find the rate of the wind.

The rate of wind is 9 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

A boater travels 27 miles per hour on the water on a still day.

The w be the rate of wind.

27 + w = speed with the wind    

27 - w = speed against the wind

Time taken by him to travel with the wind =

Time taken by him to travel against the wind =

Since, the time is equal,

Thus, the rate of wind is 9 miles per hour.

look a the sides they are perpendicular

correct answer is option b.

step-by-step explanation:

the true statement about geometric figure is option b that is one line can be drawn through all three points.

if three points are on the same plane, they can be connected by a line.
