Let the speed of boat is x km/h in still water and stream y km/h
According to question,
{tex}\frac{{30}}{{x - y}} + \frac{{44}}{{x + y}} = 10{/tex}
and {tex}\frac{{40}}{{x - y}} + \frac{{55}}{{x + y}} = 13{/tex}
Let {tex}\frac{1}{{x - y}} = u{/tex} and {tex}\frac{1}{{x + y}} = v{/tex}
30u + 44v = 10 ...(i)
40u + 55v = 13 ....(ii)
on solving eq. (i) and (ii) we get,
{tex}u = \frac{1}{5} \Rightarrow x - y = 5{/tex} ....(iii)
{tex}v = \frac{1}{{11}} \Rightarrow x + y = 11{/tex} ....(iv)
On solving eq. (iii) and (iv) we get,
x = 8km/h
y = 3km/h
