🔍 Key Concepts

• Relative speed made good when running with or against current • Converting distance in statute miles and speed in mph into time (hours and minutes) • Adding elapsed time to a given date and time (local) to get ETA

💭 Think About

• First, decide: is your travel with the current or against it? How does that change your actual speed over the ground compared to your engine speed? • Figure out the river mile distance between Memphis Gage and Cairo Point. Once you know the distance and your speed over ground, how many hours and minutes will the trip take? • After you get the elapsed time, carefully add it to 0405 on 18 March. Do you cross over into the next day? By how many hours?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you’re using speed over ground (engine speed adjusted for current), not just the engine speed alone • Double-check the river mile difference between Memphis Gage and Cairo Point (use AHP miles correctly) • When adding time, confirm both total hours and the correct calendar day (18 vs 19 March) before matching a choice
