Let speed of the boat in still water = x miles per hour
Let speed of the current = y miles per hour
When water and current both flow in same direction then effective speed will be sum of both speeds that is (x+y)
now plug the given values in formula speed=distance/time
we get equation:
(x+y)=160/8
or x+y=20...(i)
When water and current both flow in opposite direction then effective speed will be difference of both speeds that is (x-y)
now plug the given values in formula speed=distance/time
we get equation:
(x-y)=160/40
or x-y=4
or x=4+y...(ii)
plug value of x into (i)
4+y+y=20
4+2y=20
2y=16
y=8
plug value of y into (ii)
x=4+8=12
Hence final answer is given by:
Speed of the boat in still water = 12 miles per hour
Speed of the current = 8 miles per hour
An area That rises above surrounding landforms and has a rounded top; lower and usually less steep than a mountain. ... A high, flat-topped landform with cliff-like sides; larger than a butte.
Hope this helps!
Answer: a = 
We want to isolate a. Add both sides by 2. Then we get u + 2 = 2a. To get just a, we can divide by 2 to get (u+2)/2.
Hope that helped,
