Bob is a steady but absentminded paddler. He begins his canoe trip canoeing upstream. After 1.5 miles, his hat falls into the river and begins floating down stream, but Bob doesn't even notice. Twenty minutes later he reaches his destination and turns around, continuing his same steady paddling in the downstream direction. He reaches his starting point at the same time his hat does, grabs his hat, and pulls his canoe out of the water. How fast is the river flowing?

Step-by-step explanation:

We are expected to solve for Bob's speed

Given data

distance covered = 1.5 mile

time taken = 20 minutes to hours = 0.33hours

We know that the expression for speed is given by

speed= distance covered/time taken

substituting our given values we have

speed= 1.5/0.33

speed=4.5 mph

So Bob's speed is 4.5 miles per hour

d

step-by-step explanation:

from the figure we get,

the x axis shows   the months and,

the y-axis shows the number of satisfied customer.

each line or each cell in upward direction (y-axis) shows 500.

the appropriate scale for the y - axis is: -

a = 2000 customers

b = 4000 customers

c = 6000 customers

d = 8000 customers

e = 10000 customers

f = 12000 customers

g = 14000 customers
