A small motorboat travels 15 mph in still water. It takes 2

A small motorboat travels 15 mph in still water. It takes 2 hours longer to travel 69 miles going upstream than it does going downstream. Find the rate of the current. (Hint: 15 + x = rate going downstream and 15 - x = rate going upstream.)(Round your answer to the nearest tenth.)
