Answer» If speed of the boat be x and stream speed be y from the given question, 24/(x-y) + 28/(x+y) = 630/(x-y) + 21/(x+y) = 6.5 Taking 1/(x-y) as X and 1/(x+y) as Y24X + 28Y = 630X + 21Y = 6.5 solving for X and Y==>X = 1/6 and Y = 1/14 so x-y = 6 and x+y = 14hencex = 10 kmph and y = 4kmph Like my answer if you find it useful! |
