QUESTION 5 Consider a river that flows east. A boat captain guides his boat across the river so that the boat heads in the direction 20.8 degrees west of north so that the boat ends up on the opposite bank directly across from her starting point in the north. If the speed of the boat with respect to the river is 11.5 mph, find the flow speed of the river. Enter your answer in mph.
