A motorboat travels 222 miles in 6 hours going upstream. It travels 282 miles going downstream in the same amount of time. What is the rate of the boat in still water and what is the rate of the current?

c

step-by-step explanation:

1. perpendicular

2. parallel

3. perpendicular

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
