The time taken by the boat to travel 32 miles downstream is 2.1 hours and for upstream 3.56 hours.
<h3>What is speed?</h3>
Speed is defined as the ratio of the time distance traveled by the body to the time taken by the body to cover the distance.
Given that:-
- A paddleboat moves at a rate of 12 mph in still water. If the rover’s current moves at a rate of 3 mph.
- how long will it take the boat to travel 36 miles downstream and 36 miles upstream?
The time taken by the boat upstream will be calculated as:-
( B + W ) Td = D
( 12 + 3 ) Td = 32
( 15 ) Td = 32
Td = 32 / 15 = 2.1 hours
The time taken by the boat downstream will be calculated as:-
( B - W ) Tu = D
( 12 - 3 ) Tu = 32
9 Tu = 32
Tu = 32 / 9 = 3.56 hours.
Therefore the time taken by the boat to travel 32 miles downstream is 2.1 hours and for upstream 3.56 hours.

Assuming you meant square root of 90 it would be
90 equals 3 times the square root of 10
√90 = 3√10
