Formulate the following problems as pair of equation and then find their solutions.
A boat goes 30 km upstream and 44 km down stream in 10 hours . In 13 hours it can go 40 km upstream and 55 k8 downstream . Determine the speed of the stream and that of the boat in still water.

Open in App

Solution

Let the speed of the boat in still water
= x kmph
Speed in downstream = x + y kmph
Speed in upstream = x - y kmph
Time=Distancespeed
