Step-by-step explanation:
let speed of boat =S1
speed of stream=S2
total distance=30 km
1)time taken by boat to cover 30 km diastance when it moves along stream=2 hrs
2)time taken by boat to 30 km distance when it moves against ( return journey) = 2hrs+1hr 20 mins
= 3 hr 20 mins
=3+1/3 hrs
we know that. time=distance/speed
1) 2=30/(S1+S2)
S1+S2=15
2)3+1/3=30/(S1-S2)
10/3=30/(S1-S2)
S1-S2=9
by solving above two equations we get S1=12 km/ hr and S2=3 km/hr
speed of boat S1=12 km/ hr
speed of stream S2= 3 km/hr
