Answer:
4 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Boat speed = 20 mph
speed of current = x mph
Distance against current = 2 miles
Distance with current = 3 miles
speed against current will be ; 20 - x
speed with current will be ; 20 + x
Time =distance / speed against time against = time with current
Solving Mathematically ;
2/(20-x )=3/(20 +x)
2(20+x )= 3( 20-x )
40+2x = 60-3x
3x +2x=20
5x=20
x = 20 / 5
x = 4 mph
Speed of current = 4 mph

Hi, There! Mika-Chan I'm here to help! :)
<u><em>To find the distance from a point to a line, first find the perpendicular line passing through the point. Then using the Pythagorean theorem, find the distance from the original point to the point of intersection between the two lines.</em></u>
