AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to determine the speed of the boat in still water (let's denote it as \( x \) km/h) and the speed of the stream (denote it as \( y \) km/h). ### Step 1: Set Up the Equations 1. **Upstream Speed**: When the boat is going upstream, its effective speed is \( x - y \) km/h. 2. **Downstream Speed**: When the boat is going downstream, its effective speed is \( x + y \) km/h. From the problem, we have two scenarios: ...
