Speed upstream(S.u) = 20/5 => 4miles/hr
Speed downstream(S.d) = 10/2 => 5miles/hr
Speed of man in still water(speed of boat in still water)= 1/2 * (S.u + S.d)
= 0.5 * (4 + 5)
= 0.5 *9
= 4.5miles/hr
The speed of man in still water is 4.5 miles/hr
Her average speed is 1.6 miles per hour. Average speed is total distance covered by total time taken to do it. She swims 4 miles upstream, and at 1 mph, it takes 4 hours. She comes back downstream at 4 mph and so she covers the 4 miles in 1 hour. Her total mileage is 8 miles. It takes 4 + 1 hours or 5 hours to cover it. The 8 miles divided by 5 hours is 1 3/5 miles per hour, or 1.6 mph for an average speed.

Since the distance downstream (with the current) equals the distance upstream (against the current), and if we: Let B stand for the speed (rate in mph) of the boat in still water, and using the formula rate X time = distance, the equation will be: (B+7) x 3 = (B-7) x 5 3B + 21 = 5B - 35 56 = 2B B = 28 mph Traveling downstream, the current will cause the boat to go faster so the 7 mph current is added to the boat's still water speed. Traveling upsteam the current slows or decreases the boat's rate so the current's speed is subtracted from the boat's still water speed.
The time it takes to travel 166 miles depends on the speed at which you are traveling. If you are driving at a constant speed of 55 miles per hour, it would take approximately 3 hours to cover 166 miles (166 miles / 55 miles per hour = 3 hours). If you are traveling at a different speed, you can calculate the time by dividing the distance by the speed at which you are traveling.

To find how long it will take to return downstream, first determine the effective speed while rowing upstream. The current speed is 2 mph, so your effective speed upstream is your rowing speed minus the current. If it takes 3 hours to row 9 miles upstream, your rowing speed is 5 mph (since 9 miles / 3 hours = 3 mph, and 3 mph + 2 mph = 5 mph). While returning downstream, your effective speed will be 5 mph + 2 mph = 7 mph. Thus, it will take 9 miles / 7 mph = approximately 1.29 hours, or about 1 hour and 17 minutes, to return downstream.
Her average speed is 1.6 miles per hour. Average speed is total distance covered by total time taken to do it. She swims 4 miles upstream, and at 1 mph, it takes 4 hours. She comes back downstream at 4 mph and so she covers the 4 miles in 1 hour. Her total mileage is 8 miles. It takes 4 + 1 hours or 5 hours to cover it. The 8 miles divided by 5 hours is 1 3/5 miles per hour, or 1.6 mph for an average speed.

If the boat is moving upstream at the same speed as the current moving downstream, the boat will appear to be stationary relative to an observer on the shore. This is because the boat's upstream motion is being cancelled out by the downstream motion of the current.
The current is approximately 4 mph.

ADSL is simply a version or 'flavour' of DSL. The 'a' refers to asymmetric, meaning 'not the same'. Hence, ADSL usually has different downstream and upstream rates (e.g. 1536/256 is a common speed of ADSL available in Australia, where downstream the link speed is 1536kbps and upstream is 256kbps).
Let s = unknown speed in still water in units of miles per hour. The downstream speed will then be s + 4 and the upstream speed s - 4. In an equal time t in units of hours, t(s+4) = 40 and t(s-4) = 24. Multiplying out the parenthetical expressions yields ts + 4t = 40 and ts - 4t = 24. Subtracting the second of these equations from the first gives 8t = 16, or t = 2 hours. Therefore, ts +4t = 40, by substituting 2 for t becomes: 2s + 8 = 40, or 2s = 40 - 8 = 32, or s = 16 miles per hour.
