A canoe travels 9 miles per hour downstream and 1 mile per hour upstream.


Let x represent the canoe's speed with no water current in still water) and y


represent the speed of the water current, in miles per hour. Then the situation


can be represented by this system of equations:


x + y = 9


x- y = 1


Choose the two correct options.




A. The speed of the canoe in still water is 4 miles per hour.


B. The speed of the water current is 5 miles per hour.


C. The speed of the water current is 4 miles per hour.


D. The speed of the canoe in still water is 5 miles per hour.
