Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
downstream 13 mph
upstream 3 mph
13 = b+c
3 = b-c
add
16 =2b, b = 8 mph = boat speed
c = 5 mph= current speed

asked 01/14/19traveling downstream a certain boat went 13 mph. Traveling upstream it only went 3 mph. How do you find the current and the speed of the boat (if there was no current)?
