A person paddles a canoe 30 miles downstream in 2 hours. If the return trip takes 3 hours, then the speed of paddling is ____.
Let 'x' miles/hr be the paddling speed and 'y' miles/hr be the speed of the current. Speed of the man while going downstream = (x + y) miles/hr Speed of the man while going upstream = (x − y) miles/hr We know that, Distance = Speed × Time Downstream: Time taken is 2 hrs and Distance is 30 miles ⇒ x – y = 10 ----- (ii) ⇒ (x + y) + (x − y) = 15 + 10 Adding equations (i) and (ii), we get ⇒ 2x = 25 ⇒ x = 12.5 Hence, the speed of paddling is 12.5 m/hr.
The larger of two complementary angles is twice the smaller. Then the angles are ____.
Two angles are said to be complementary, if their sum is equal to 90°. Let the angles be x and y. x + y = 90 ---- (i) suppose x is the larger angle. ⇒ x = 2y As per the problem, x – 2y = 0 ----- (ii) Subtracting equation (ii) from equation (i), we get ⇒ -3y = -90 ⇒ 3y = 90 ⇒ y = 30 Substituting the value of y in equation (i), we get x = 60 Hence, the angles are 60° and 30°.
