Answer to Problem 30CLR

  12mi/h

Explanation of Solution

Given: It took a cyclist 6 hour to travel 48 miles going against the wind. The next day on the return trip, it took the cyclist 3 hour travelling with the wind.

Let a be the speed of cyclist and b be the rate of wind

Then

It took a cyclist 6 hour to travel 48 miles going against the wind

i.e.

  rw=486rw=8..(i)

It took the cyclist 3 hour travelling with the wind.

i.e.

  r+w=483r+w=16..(ii)

Add equation (ii) and (i)

We get

  rw+r+w=8+162r=24r=12

Hence, the speed is 12mi/h
