Toni rows a boat 4.5 km/h upstream and then turns around and rows 5.5 km/h back downstream to her starting point. if her total rowing time is 48 min, for how long does she row upstream? express your answer to the nearest minute. about 24 min about 26 min about 44 min about 30 min

about 26 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Toni rows a boat 4.5 km/h upstream and then turns around and rows 5.5 km/h back downstream to her starting point

First we find the average speed

We add both speed and divide it by 2

Now we find the distance for round trip

given total time is 48 mins. convert mins into hours

48 mins = 48 divide by 60 = 0.8

average speed = 5 km/hr

Distance = speed * time = 5 * 0.8 = 4 km

distance covered both ways = 4 km

so 4 divide by 2 = 2 km each way

To find time taken for upstream = distance of each way / speed of upstream

time =

Now convert hours into minutes

0.44* 60= 26.4 minutes

50- 250 is correct i did that one too
