Question 1:
If a boat goes 7 km upstream in 42 minutes and the speed of the stream is 3 kmph, then the speed of the boat in still water is
A. 12 kmph
B. 14 kmph
C. 13 kmph
Feedback Rate upstream = (7/42) × 60 kmh = 10 kmph.
Speed of stream = 3 kmph.
Let speed in sttil water is x km/hr
Then, speed upstream = (x —3) km/hr.
p>x-3 = 10 or x = 13 kmph
D. 15 kmph
