John has a boat that will travel at the rate of 15 kph in still water. He can go upstream for 35 km in the same time it takes to

Otrada [13]

Answer:

The boat traveling at 24 kph when John goes downstream.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

John has a boat that will travel at the rate of 15 kph in still water.

Let x be the speed of the current.

Speed of boat in upstream

$(15-x)\text{ kph}$

Speed of water in downstream

$(15+x)\text{ kph}$

Relation:

$\text{Speed} = \dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

We have to find the speed of boat in downstream.

Time to travel upstream for 35 km = Time to travel 140 km downstream

$\displaystyle\frac{35}{15-x}=\frac{140}{15+x}\\\\35(15+x) = 140(15-x)\\525 + 35x = 2100 - 140x\\175x = 1575\\x = 9$

Thus, speed of current is 9 kph.

Speed of boat in downstream = 15 + 9 = 24 kph.

Thus, the boat traveling at 24 kph when John goes downstream.
