a boat travels 24 mi uptream in 3 hrs. it hen takes 3 hrs to go 36 mi downstream. find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current.
Solution
D=RT
 24=r*3
 r=24/3
 r=8 mph. upstream.
 36=r*3
 r=36/3
 r=12 mph. downstream.
 (12-8)/2=4/2=2 mph. is the current speed,
 12-2=10 speed of the boat in still watre.
 8+2=10 ditto.
