You can put this solution on YOUR website!
B is rate of boat=10 mph
\n" ); document.write( "W is rate of river/water=3 mph
\n" ); document.write( "(B-W)Tu=D <--equation for traveling upstream
\n" ); document.write( "(10-3)Tu=32
\n" ); document.write( "7Tu=32
\n" ); document.write( "Tu=32/7 hrs or 4.6 hrs\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Additional notes:
\n" ); document.write( "If you were traveling downstream, your equation would look like this: (B+W)Td=D
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
