Two boat landings are 8.0 km apart on the same bank of a stream that flows at 2.8 km/h. A motorboat makes the round trip between the two landings in 50 minutes. What is the speed of the boat relative to the water?

Danielle, you should try answering the questions yourself before mass-posting on Jiskha. People don't like to answer questions that obviously haven't been put an effort into. Even if you don't know, post your work on the question.
Yes, I am getting a bit frayed around the edges as well.
AH! Sorry, I didn't know it would make the site look messy. I've been working on these for a while now,and I promise I just a lot of work into them. i didn't realize I had posted so many. Sorry.
