Question 888799: a boat goes 20 mph in still water, and the rate of the current is t mpg. (a) what is the rate of the boat when it travels upstream? (b) what is the rate of the boat when it travels downstream Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! upstream the boat has a reduced speed
so upstream speed = 20 -t mph
downstream it has a speed of 20+t mph
