Question

2. Formulate the following problems as a pair of equations, and hence find their solutions:
() Ritu can row downstream 20 km in 2 hours, and upstream 4 km in 2 hours. Find her
speed of rowing in still water and the speed of the current.
(ii) 2 women and 5 men can together finish an embroidery work in 4 days, while 3
women and 6 men can finish it in 3 days. Find the time taken by 1 woman alone to
finish the work, and also that taken by 1 man alone.
(ii) Roohi travels 300 km to her home partly by train and partly by bus. She takes 4
hours if she travels 60 km by train and the remaining by bus. If she travels 100 km
by train and the remaining by bus, she takes 10 minutes longer. Find the speed of
the train and the bus separately.

Let the speed of train and bus be u km/h and v km/h respectively.

According to the question,

$\frac{60}{u} + \frac{240}{v} = 4$....(i)

$\frac{100}{u} + \frac{200}{v} = 4 + \frac{10}{60} = \frac{25}{6}$....(ii)

Let $\frac{1}{u} = p\: and \frac{1}{v} = q$

The given equations reduce to:

60p + 240q = 4 ....(iii)

100p + 200q = $\frac{25}{6}$

600p + 1200q = 25....(iv)

Multiplying equation (iii) by 10, we obtain:

600p + 2400q = 40....(v)

Subtracting equation (iv) from equation (v), we obtain:

1200q = 15

q = $\frac{15}{1200} = \frac{1}{80}$

Substituting the value of q in equation (iii), we obtain:

60p + 3 = 4

60p = 1

p = $\frac{1}{60}$

:. p = $\frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{60}$, q = $\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{80}$

u = 60 km/h , v = 80 km/h

Thus, the speed of train and the speed of bus are 60 km/h and 80 km/h respectively.
