I don't really know what to do with this question Medal reward
A health class takes a field trip to go canoeing. A canoe was paddled downstream with the current and traveled 45 miles in 5 hours. On its return trip, the canoe was going into the current and was paddled at the same rate. The return trip took 9.5 hours. The current was flowing at 2 miles per hour during both trips.
Part A Write an equation that you could use to find the canoe’s speed, r, in miles per hour when it traveled with the current. Write another equation that you could use to find the canoe’s speed, r, in miles per hour

Your pretty much just find the canoe’s speed, r, in miles per hour and write down the equation you used to solve that.
