please answer my question
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
the speed of the boat be x km/hr.
the speed of the current of the stream be y km/hr.
Time taken by the boat to go 10 km along with the stream = 20 min
= 20/60 hr = 1/3 hr
Time taken by the boat to go 10 km against the stream = 30 min
= 30/60 hr = 1/2 hr
Now, the equations formed are.....
x+y= 10/1/3
x+y= 10 X 3
x+y=30................... (i)
x-y =10/1/2
x-y=10 X 2
x-y= 20....................(ii)
Now, adding both the equations,
x+y = 30
x-y=20
____+________________
2x = 50
_____________________
Thus, we get. 2x=50
So, _________
/ x =25 /
Now, substituting the value of x in eq. (i)
x+y=30
25+y=30
y= 30-25
y = 5
Hence,
The speed of the current of the stream =y
= 5km/hr
