Two ferries travel across a lake 50 miles wide. one ferry goes 5 miles per hour slower than the other. if the slower ferry leaves 1 hour earlier than the faster, but both arrive at the same time, what is the speed of the slower ferry

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the speed of first ferry.

Then the speed of second slower ferry is x-5 (since 5 miles per hour slower)

Time taken by first ferry = distance/speed =

Time taken by second ferry =

Since second ferry starts one hour early, difference in times is 1 hour.

Speed cannot be negative.

Hence answer is speed of the first ferry = 18.5 mph

and second ferry i.e. slower ferry is = 13.5 mph

step-by-step explanation:

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
