Unit 5 – Systems of Linear Equations and Inequalities

This unit begins by ensuring that students understand that solutions to equations are points that make the equation true, while solutions to systems make all equations (or inequalities) true.  Graphical and substitution methods for solving systems are reviewed before the development of the Elimination Method.  Modeling with systems of equations and inequalities is stressed.  Finally, we develop the idea of using graphs to help solve equations.

Solve Direct Translation Applications

Systems of linear equations are very useful for solving applications. Some people find setting up word problems with two variables easier than setting them up with just one variable. To solve an application, we’ll first translate the words into a system of linear equations. Then we will decide the most convenient method to use, and then solve the system.

SOLVE APPLICATIONS WITH SYSTEMS OF EQUATIONS.

How many calories did she burn for each minutes on the rowing machine? How many calories did she burn for each minute of weight lifting?

Erin burned 11 calories for each minute on the rowing machine and 5 calories for each minute of weight lifting.

Solve Geometry Applications

We will now solve geometry applications using systems of linear equations. We will need to add complementary angles and supplementary angles to our list some properties of angles.

The measures of two complementary angles add to 90 degrees. The measures of two supplementary angles add to 180 degrees.

COMPLEMENTARY AND SUPPLEMENTARY ANGLES

Two angles are complementary if the sum of the measures of their angles is 90 degrees.

Two angles are supplementary if the sum of the measures of their angles is 180 degrees

If two angles are complementary, we say that one angle is the complement of the other.

If two angles are supplementary, we say that one angle is the supplement of the other.

Example \(\PageIndex{10}\)

Translate to a system of equations and then solve.

The difference of two complementary angles is 26 degrees. Find the measures of the angles.

The angle measures are 55 and 35.

Example \(\PageIndex{12}\)

The angle measures are 5 and 85.

In the next example, we remember that the measures of supplementary angles add to 180.

Recall that the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. A right triangle has one angle that is 90 degrees. What does that tell us about the other two angles? In the next example we will be finding the measures of the other two angles.

Often it is helpful when solving geometry applications to draw a picture to visualize the situation.

Example \(\PageIndex{19}\)

Randall has 125 feet of fencing to enclose the part of his backyard adjacent to his house. He will only need to fence around three sides, because the fourth side will be the wall of the house. He wants the length of the fenced yard (parallel to the house wall) to be 5 feet more than four times as long as the width. Find the length and the width.

Example \(\PageIndex{20}\)

Mario wants to put a fence around the pool in his backyard. Since one side is adjacent to the house, he will only need to fence three sides. There are two long sides and the one shorter side is parallel to the house. He needs 155 feet of fencing to enclose the pool. The length of the long side is 10 feet less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the pool area to be enclosed.

The length is 60 feet and the width is 35 feet.

Example \(\PageIndex{21}\)

Alexis wants to build a rectangular dog run in her yard adjacent to her neighbor’s fence. She will use 136 feet of fencing to completely enclose the rectangular dog run. The length of the dog run along the neighbor’s fence will be 16 feet less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the dog run.

The length is 60 feet and the width is 38 feet.

We used a table to organize the information in uniform motion problems when we introduced them earlier. We’ll continue using the table here. The basic equation was \(D=rt\) where D is the distance traveled, r is the rate, and t is the time.

Our first example of a uniform motion application will be for a situation similar to some we have already seen, but now we can use two variables and two equations.

Example \(\PageIndex{22}\)

Joni left St. Louis on the interstate, driving west towards Denver at a speed of 65 miles per hour. Half an hour later, Kelly left St. Louis on the same route as Joni, driving 78 miles per hour. How long will it take Kelly to catch up to Joni?

A diagram is useful in helping us visualize the situation.

.

Identify and name what we are looking for. A chart will help us organize the data. We know the rates of both Joni and Kelly, and so we enter them in the chart. We are looking for the length of time Kelly, k , and Joni, j , will each drive.

.

Since \(D=r·t\) we can fill in the Distance column.

To make the system of equations, we must recognize that Kelly and Joni will drive the same distance. So,

\(\hspace{85mm} 65j=78k \nonumber \)

Also, since Kelly left later, her time will be \(\frac{1}{2}\) hour less than Joni’s time. So,

\( \hspace{105mm} k=j-\frac{1}{2} \nonumber \)

\(\begin{array} {ll} {\text{Now we have the system.}} &{\left\{ \begin{array} {l} k=j−\frac{1}{2} \\ 65j=78k \end{array} \right.} \\ {\textbf{Solve }\text{the system of equations by substitution.}} &{} \\ {} &{} \\ {\text{Substitute }k=j−12\text{ into the second equation,}} &{} \\ {\text{then solve for }j.} &{} \\ {} &{65j=78k} \\ {} &{65j=78(j−\frac{1}{2})} \\ {} &{65j=78j−39} \\ {} &{−13j=−39} \\ {} &{j=3} \\{\begin{array} {l} {\text{To find Kelly’s time, substitute }j=3 \text{ into the first}} \\ {\text{equation, then solve for }k.} \end{array} } &{k=j−\frac{1}{2}} \\ {} &{k=3−\frac{1}{2} } \\ {} &{k=\frac{5}{2} \text{ or } k=2\frac{1}{2}} \\ {\textbf{Check }\text{the answer in the problem.}} &{} \\ {\begin{array} {lllll} {\text{Joni}} &{3 \text{ hours}} &{(65\text{ mph})} &= &{195\text{ miles}} \\ {\text{Kelly}} &{2\frac{1}{2} \text{ hours}} &{(78\text{ mph})} &= &{195\text{ miles}} \end{array}} &{} \\ {\text{Yes, they will have traveled the same distance}} &{} \\{\text{when they meet.}} &{} \\ {\textbf{Answer }\text{the question.}} &{} \\ {} &{\text{Kelly will catch up to Joni in}} \\ {} &{2\frac{1}{2}\text{ hours.

Example \(\PageIndex{23}\)

Mitchell left Detroit on the interstate driving south towards Orlando at a speed of 60 miles per hour. Clark left Detroit 1 hour later traveling at a speed of 75 miles per hour, following the same route as Mitchell. How long will it take Clark to catch Mitchell?

It will take Clark 4 hours to catch Mitchell.

Example \(\PageIndex{24}\)

Charlie left his mother’s house traveling at an average speed of 36 miles per hour. His sister Sally left 15 minutes \((\frac{1}{4} \text{ hour})\) later traveling the same route at an average speed of 42 miles per hour. How long before Sally catches up to Charlie?

It will take Sally \(112\) hours to catch up to Charlie.

Many real-world applications of uniform motion arise because of the effects of currents—of water or air—on the actual speed of a vehicle. Cross-country airplane flights in the United States generally take longer going west than going east because of the prevailing wind currents.

Let’s take a look at a boat travelling on a river. Depending on which way the boat is going, the current of the water is either slowing it down or speeding it up.

The images below show how a river current affects the speed at which a boat is actually travelling. We’ll call the speed of the boat in still water b and the speed of the river current c .

The boat is going downstream, in the same direction as the river current. The current helps push the boat, so the boat’s actual speed is faster than its speed in still water. The actual speed at which the boat is moving is \(b+c\).

Figure shows a boat and two horizontal arrows, both pointing left. The one to the left of the boat is b and the one to the right is c.

Now, the boat is going upstream, opposite to the river current. The current is going against the boat, so the boat’s actual speed is slower than its speed in still water. The actual speed of the boat is \(b−c\).

Figure shows a boat and two horizontal arrows to its left. One, labeled b, points left and the other, labeled c, points right.

We’ll put some numbers to this situation in the next example.

Example \(\PageIndex{25}\)

A river cruise ship sailed 60 miles downstream for 4 hours and then took 5 hours sailing upstream to return to the dock. Find the speed of the ship in still water and the speed of the river current.

\(c= \text{the rate of the current}\)
A chart will help us organize the information.
The ship goes downstream and then upstream.
Going downstream, the current helps the
ship and so the ship's actual rate is + .
Going upstream, the current slows the ship
and so the actual rate is − .
Downstream it takes 4 hours.
Upstream it takes 5 hours.

The downstream rate would be
\(13.5+1.5=15\) mph.
In 4 hours the ship would travel

The upstream rate would be
\(13.5−1.5=12\) mph.
In 5 hours the ship would travel
\(12·5=60\) miles.
 
the question. The rate of the ship is 13.5 mph and
the rate of the current is 1.5 mph.

Example \(\PageIndex{26}\)

A Mississippi river boat cruise sailed 120 miles upstream for 12 hours and then took 10 hours to return to the dock. Find the speed of the river boat in still water and the speed of the river current.

The rate of the boat is 11 mph and the rate of the current is 1 mph.

Example \(\PageIndex{27}\)

Jason paddled his canoe 24 miles upstream for 4 hours. It took him 3 hours to paddle back. Find the speed of the canoe in still water and the speed of the river current.

The speed of the canoe is 7 mph and the speed of the current is 1 mph.

Wind currents affect airplane speeds in the same way as water currents affect boat speeds. We’ll see this in the next example. A wind current in the same direction as the plane is flying is called a tailwind . A wind current blowing against the direction of the plane is called a headwind .

Example \(\PageIndex{28}\)

A private jet can fly 1,095 miles in three hours with a tailwind but only 987 miles in three hours into a headwind. Find the speed of the jet in still air and the speed of the wind.

and one in a headwind.
In a tailwind, the wind helps the jet and so
the rate is + .
In a headwind, the wind slows the jet and
so the rate is ‒ .
Each trip takes 3 hours.

With the tailwind, the actual rate of the
jet would be

In 3 hours the jet would travel

Going into the headwind, the jet’s actual

In 3 hours the jet would travel

A small jet can fly 1,325 miles in 5 hours with a tailwind but only 1,035 miles in 5 hours into a headwind. Find the speed of the jet in still air and the speed of the wind.

The speed of the jet is 235 mph and the speed of the wind is 30 mph.

Example \(\PageIndex{30}\)

A commercial jet can fly 1,728 miles in 4 hours with a tailwind but only 1,536 miles in 4 hours into a headwind. Find the speed of the jet in still air and the speed of the wind.
