Answer:

  30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the distance to the island. The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

so the total time for the round trip is ...

  d/15 +d/10 = 5

Multiplying by 30, we get

  2d +3d = 150

  d = 150/5 = 30

The island was 30 miles from the harbor.
