Aro diagrams his river rafting trip, estimating the time it will take him to paddle upstream against the current, and then back

downstream with the current. His campsite destination is 5.2 miles upstream. Determine how fast Aro can paddle and how fast the river water is moving. Round to the nearest hundredth as needed. Upstream: Downstream: Let x be the speed of Aro’s paddling and let y be the speed of the river. Upstream: 1.04 = x – y Downstream: 2.08 = x + y Aro can paddle at a speed of miles per hour. The river’s speed is miles per hour.

Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar(s).
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

  • x = 15/p
  • x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given expression</u>

  • 4(px+1)=64

<u>Solving for x</u>

  • 4px + 4 = 64
  • 4px = 60
  • px = 15
  • x = 15/p

<u>Value of x when p= - 5</u>

  • x = 15/(-5) = -3

Need help finding the x, y, and z. please and thank you
Reptile [31]

The first step in any problem is to look at what you are given. When solving systems of linear equations, it is often helpful to eliminate one or more of the variables by adding or subtracting a multiple of one equation with a multiple of another. It is convenient when at least one of the multipliers is 1.

Here, we can cancel the y-terms in the 2nd and 3rd equations simply by adding them together. This gives

... (5x +y -4z) +(-3x -y +5z) = (41) +(-45)

... 2x +z = -4 . . . . simplified

Likewise, we can add 3 times the second equation to the first to cancel y in that sum.

... 3(5x +y -4z) +(2x -3y +z) = 3(41) + (-1)

...15x +3y -12z +2x -3y +z = 123 -1

...17x -11z = 122 . . . . simplified

Now that we have 2 equations in x and z, we can go through the same process. We observe that the coefficient of z is +1 in the first equation and -11 in the second. The means we can cancel the z terms by adding 11 times the first equation to the second:

... 11(2x +z) +(17x -11z) = 11(-4) +122

...22x +17x = 78 . . . . . . simplify a little bit

... x = 78/39 = 2 . . . . . . divide by 39

From above, we find

... z = -4 -2x = -4 -2·2 = -8

... y = 41 -5x +4z = 41-5(2) +4(-8) = 41 -42 = -1

The solution is (x, y, z) = (2, -1, -8).

_____

The method of elimination used here will vary with the system of equations. If you want to employ a consistent method, you can use Cramer's Rule, Gaussian elimination, or matrix methods. Since you apparently don't mind help from technology, learning to do this on your graphing calculator can also be a good idea.
