Answer:

4 km/hr

Explanation:

suppose 's' is Diane's speed with no current.

't' represents time in hrs.

Using the formula:

Distance = speed 's' x time 't'

-> when she swims against the current, equation will be,

5= (s-2)t

t= 5/(s-2)

->when she was swimming with the current, equation is,

15= (s+2) t

t= 15/(s+2)

equating eq(1) and (2)

5/(s-2) = 15/(s+2)

5s + 10 = 15s - 30

40= 10s

s= 40/10

s=4

Therefore, if there were no current, her speed is 4km/hr
