Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
UPSTREAM = X - Y = 10 [eq 1]
DOWNSTREAM = X + Y = 20 [eq 2]
USING ELIMINATION METHOD :
X + Y = 20
X - Y = 10
___________________________________________
2X = 30
X = 15
SUBSTITUTING X IN EQ 1 WE GET:
Y = 20 - 15
Y = 5
X = SPEED OF BOAT
Y = SPEED OF STREAM
SO THE RATIO IS 15:5 WHICH IS 3:1
