In still water, the speed of a motorboat is 15 km/h. The boat travels 30 km downstream and returns in 4 hours and 30 minutes.
The stream's speed (in km/h) is:
4
7
5
3
- The motorboat's speed in still water is 15 km/h.
- For downstream, the speed is increased by the stream's speed.
- For upstream, the stream's speed is subtracted from the boat's speed.
- Time to travel 30 km downstream and back is given as 4.5 hours.
Let's determine the stream's speed:
- Let the stream's speed be x km/h.
- Downstream speed = (15+x) km/h.
- Upstream speed = (15−x) km/h.
- Time for downstream trip = 3015+x.
- Time for upstream trip = 3015−x.
- Total time = 4.5=3015+x+3015−x.
After solving this equation to find x, we find that:
- 4 is the correct answer.
