If the rate of the boat in still water is 23 mph, and the rate of the current of a river is x​ mph, what is the rate of the boat in each​ case?

​a) The boat is going upstream​ (that is, against the​ current, which slows the boat​ down.)
​b) The boat is going downstream​ (that is, with the​ current, which speeds the boat​ up.)
