Chapter 1.1, Problem 28E
On a sunny summer day, you are taking the scenicboat ride from Stein am Rhein, Switzerland, to Schaffhausen, down the Rhein River. This nonstop triptakes 40 minutes, but the return trip to Stein, upstream, will take a full hour. Back in Stein, you decide to stayon the boat and continue on to Constance, Germany,now traveling on the still waters of Lake Constance.How long will this nonstop trip from Stein to Constancetake? You may assume that the boat is traveling at aconstant speed relative to the water throughout and that the Rhein River flows at a constant speed between Steinand Schaffhausen. The traveling distance from Stein to Schaffhausen is the same as from Stein to Constance.
