Let the speed of the stream be x km\hr.
The speed of the boat upstream = (18 - x) km/hr
The speed of the boat downstream = (18 + x) km/hr
Distance = 24 km
As given in the question,
Time for upstream = 1 + Time for downstream
24/(18 - x) = 1 + 24/(18 + x)
24/(18 - x) - 24/(18 + x) = 1
x2 + 48x - 324 = 0
(x + 54)(x - 6) = 0
x ≠ - 54 as speed cannot be negative.
x = 6
The speed of the stream = 6 km/hr
Please make my answer brainliest please ple ase
