Solve the system of equations by finding the reduced row-echelon form of the augmented matrix for the system of equations.

ycow [4]

This involves quite a lot of arithmetic to do manually.

The first thing you do is to make the first number in row 2 = to 0.

This is done by R2 = -3/2 R1 + R2

so the matrix becomes

( 2 1 1) ( -3 )

( 0 -13/2 3/2) (1/2 )

(5 -1 2) (-2)

Next step is to make the 5 in row 5 = 0

then the -1 must become zero

You aim for the form

( 1 0 0) (x)

(0 1 0) (y)

(0 0 1) ( z)

x , y and z will be the required solutions.

Two trains start from Fort Worth traveling at the same speed. The trip for Train W takes 20 hours, while the trip for Train Z ta

MrMuchimi

Answer:

The equation that best models this situation is :

b. $\frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}$

Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = 2,000 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken for Train W to complete a trip = 20 hours

Time taken for Train Z to complete a trip = 25 hours

The city Train Z is traveling to is 400 miles farther away than the city Train W is traveling to.

both trains have same speeds and start from same location.

To find the distance in total each train travels.

Solution:

<em>Let length of the trip of Train W be </em>= $x$ miles

Speed of Train W can be given as :

⇒ $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

⇒ $\frac{x}{20}\ miles/h$

<em>So, the length of the trip of Train Z will be</em> = $(x+400)$ miles

Speed of Train Z can be given as :

⇒ $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

⇒ $\frac{x+400}{25}\ miles/h$

Since the speeds are same, so the equation to find $x$ can be given as:

⇒ $\frac{x}{20}=\frac{x+400}{25}$

Solving for $x$

Multiplying both sides by 100 to remove fractions.

⇒ $100\times \frac{x}{20}=100\times \frac{x+400}{25}$

⇒ $5x=4(x+400)$

Using distribution.

⇒ $5x=4x+1600$

Subtracting both sides by $4x$

⇒ $5x-4x=4x-4x+1600$

⇒ $x=1600$

Thus, Distance traveled by Train W = 1600 miles

Distance traveled by Train Z = $1600+400$ = 2,000 miles
