Ronjeev is paddling a kayak across a river. he wants to paddle the kayak straight across the river from east to west at a velocity of 12 kilometers per hour. however, there is a current flowing south that is pushing his kayak downstream at a velocity of 5 kilometers per hour. what is the actual velocity, in kilometers per hour, of the kayak? a 7 b 12 c 13 d 17

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the figure.

We need to find resultant of two perpendicular vectors, that is the actual velocity.

Velocity of Ronjeev = 12 kilometers per hour

Velocity of River = 5 kilometers per hour

Option C is the correct answer.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17

hope this

1/3 + 1/3 ≠ 2/6 because 1/3 alone = 2/6  

step by step explanation:

1/3 + 1/3 = 2/3       2/3=4/6
