On a particular day, the wind added 4 miles per hour to Jaime's rate when she was rowing with the wind and subtracted 4 miles per hour from her rate on her return trip. Jaime found that in the same amount of time she could row 48 miles with the wind, she could go only 24 miles against the wind. What is her normal rowing speed with no wind?

Respuesta :

Your normal rowing speed with no wind is 208/16, or 13 mph.

Answer:

s=12

Step-by-step explanation:

48(s-4)=24(s+4)

48s-192=24s+96

48s-24s=96+192

24s=288

s=12
