Chris' still water speed is 3mph, and the current's is 1.5mph... well, when Chris is going upstream, he's really not going at 3mph, since is not still water, the water is actually running, so, he's going " 3 - 1.5 " mph.

now, recall you d = rt, distance = rate * time

\bf \begin{cases}
d=1.2\\
r=3-1.5=1.5
\end{cases}\implies d=rt \implies 1.2=1.5t\implies \cfrac{1.2}{1.5}=t
\\\\\\
0.8=t\impliedby \textit{0.8 hours or 48 minutes}

What is liner equation with two variable?

  • An equation is said to be linear equation in two variables if it is written in the form of ax + by + c=0, where a, b & c are real numbers and the coefficients of x and y, i.e a and b respectively, are not equal to zero.
  • For example, 10x+4y = 3 and -x+5y = 2 are linear equations in two variables.

-10x² -10y² = -300 ----a

5x² + 5y² = 150 ---- b

While trying to solve this,

We can multiply the eq. b by 2 so we will get eq. c and then add to eq. a we will get 0 as the solution.

10x² + 10y² = 300 ----c

-10x² -10y² = -300 ---a

<u>Everything cutoff, we will </u><u>get 0</u><u>, and there is no solution to these equations.</u>
