Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of the streamer =xkm/h
The speed downstream =(x+5)km/h and
The speed upstream =(x−5)km/h
According to the given problem ,
x+5
90
=
x−5
60
On cross multiplication , we get ,
90(x−5)=60(x+5)
90x−450=60x+300
90x−60x=300+450
We get,
30x=750
x=
30
750
x=25
Therefore , the speed of the streamer in still water is 25km/h
