If a boat that travels 23 mph in Stillwater is traveling with a current that has a rate of 2 mph, how far will the boat travel in three hours

The boat travel 23 mph and an additional 2 mph so (23 + 2). Next problem wants to know how far will the boat travel in three hours. We can model this and solve using the following equation

d = rt

d = distance

r = rate

t = time

We are trying to find the distance

r = (23 + 2)

t = 3

d = 3 (23 + 2)

d = 75

The boat will travel 75 miles in 3 hours

The answer is 75 miles.
