On a canoe trip, Rita paddled upstream (against the current) at an average speed of 2mi/h relative to the riverbank. On the return trip downstream (with the current), her average speed was 3 mi/h. Find Rita's paddling sp eed in still water and the speed of the river's current.

Paddling speed = 2.5mi/h
speed of current = 0.5mi/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Paddling upstream against current (paddling speed - speed of current)
Let paddling speed be, x ; current speed = c
x - c = 2mi/h - - - (1)
Return downstream (paddling speed + speed of current)
x + c = 3mi/h - - - - (2)
Add (1) and (2)
2x = 5
x = 5/2 = 2.5
Paddling speed = x = 2.5mi/h
Speed of current :
From;
x + c = 3
2.5 + c = 3
c = 3 - 2.5
c = 0.5
c = speed of current = 0.5mi/h
