5-A9 Wind and Current Word Problems Algebra 1H Glencoe McGraw-Hill J. Evans/C. Logan

Wind and current problems are just a variation of a type of problem you’ve worked with many times this year: = Distance Rate Time

A similar example is when you walk on a moving walkway at the airport. When traveling with the current, the speed of a boat is increased by the speed of the current. A similar example is when you walk on a moving walkway at the airport. When traveling against the current, the speed of a boat is reduced by the speed of the current.

Ex. 1: Mr. Klinger went 27 miles downstream in a boat in three hours Ex. 1: Mr. Klinger went 27 miles downstream in a boat in three hours. The return trip upstream took three times as long (nine hours). Find the rate of the boat in still water and the rate of the current. Let b = boat’s speed Let c = current’s speed Going downstream, the boat is traveling with the current. The boat’s speed will be: b + c Going upstream, the boat is traveling against the current. The boat’s speed will be: b - c

÷ all terms by 3 ÷ all terms by 9 System of equations: RATE · TIME = DISTANCE with the current: against the current: ÷ all terms by 3 ÷ all terms by 9 Add the equations together. The speed of the boat is 6 mph. Find the speed of the current by substitution. Boat speed is 6 mph. Current speed is 3 mph.

Rowboat speed was 11 km/h and current speed was 1 km/h. Ex. 2: Mrs. Logan took 5 hours to row 60 km downstream and 4 hours to row 40 km upstream. Find the rate of the boat in still water and the rate of the current. Let b = rate of boat in still water Let c = rate of current rate · time = distance with current: (b + c)5 = 60 against current: (b - c)4 = 40 b + c = 12 Divide by 5. b – c = 10 Divide by 4. 2b = 22 b = 11 Rowboat speed was 11 km/h and current speed was 1 km/h.

Express the times in terms of hours. Ex. 3: Mrs. Greenberg can swim 4 km with the current in 24 minutes. The same distance would take her 40 minutes against the current. Find the rate of the current and Mrs. Greenberg’s speed in km/hour. Let s = rate swimming in still water Let c = rate of current Express the times in terms of hours. rate · time = distance with current: against current: Simplify: Simplify:

Mrs. Greenberg’s speed is 8 km/h and current speed is 2 km/h.

The rate you are traveling when you go with the wind current is a combination of the speed of the plane’s engine and the speed of the wind current. When you travel against the wind, the speed of the plane’s engine is reduced by the wind current, which is going in the opposite direction.

Plane speed was 960 km/h and wind speed was 160 km/h. Ex. 4: Flying into the wind, Mr. Wutkee flew 2800 km in 3.5 hours. The return trip, flying with the wind, took 2.5 hours. Find the rate of his plane in still air and the rate of the wind. Let p = rate of plane in still air Let w = rate of wind rate · time = distance with wind: (p + w)2.5 = 2800 against wind: (p - w)3.5 = 2800 p + w = 1120 Divide by 2.5. p – w = 800 Divide by 3.5. 2p = 1920 p = 960 Plane speed was 960 km/h and wind speed was 160 km/h.
