Weegy: Jim paddle from one shore of a lake three miles wide at 4 mph, and john paddles from the opposite shore at 5 mph. [ They traveled 20 minutes long before they meet.
Solution:
X/4 = (3 -X)/5
X = (12-4X)/5
5X = 12 - 4X
9X = 12; X = 12/9 = 4/3 = 1.33 miles; Time = X/4 = 1.33/4 = 0.33325 hours = (0.33325 * 60) minutes = 19.995 minutes.
