Swimming Janine swims for 5 hours in a stream that has a current of 1 mile per hour. She leaves her dock and swims upstream for 2 miles and then back to her dock. What is her swimming speed in still water?
Words The formula that relates distance, time,
and rate is
Variables Let r be her speed in still water. Then her speed with the current is r + 1 and her speed against the current is r – 1.
