Example 19: A boat goes 30 kmupstream and 44 km downstream in
10 hours. In 13 hours, it can go
40 km upstream and 55 km
down-stream. Determine the speedof the stream and that of the boat instill water.​

Let the speed of boat in still water be xkm/h

and speed of stream be ykm/h

While going upstream

speed=(x-y)km/h

Distance=30km

 \rm time =  \frac{distance}{speed}  \\  \rm { time =  \frac{30}{x - y} }

We have to take t1 as it is difficult to seperate time of downstream and upstream

 \rm \boxed{ t_{1}   =  \frac{30}{x - y} }

While going downstream

speed=(x+y)km/h

distance=44km

 \rm time =  \frac{distance}{speed} \\  \rm   \boxed{t_{2} =  \frac{44}{x + y} }

We have total time so we add t1 and t2 equation

 \rm 10 =  \frac{30}{x - y} +  \frac{44}{x + y}  \\  \rm let  \frac{1}{x - y} \: be \: u \: and \:  \frac{1}{x + y} \:be \: v \\  \implies \boxed{30u + 44v = 10  }

Similarly we do 2nd equation which is In 13 hours, it can go 40 km upstream and 55 km

down-stream

 \rm \implies  \boxed{40u + 55v = 13}

We can use elimination method for solving that equation

 \rm 30u + 44v = 10 \\  \rm 40u + 55v = 13

Now multiply 4 in 1st and 3 in 2nd as you know about elimination method

 \rm  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: 120u + 176v = 40 \\  \rm   \boxed{ - }120u + 165v = 39 \\  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  \\  \rm 11v = 1  \implies  \boxed{v =  \frac{1}{11} and  \: u =  \frac{1}{5} }

Now put orginal value question isn't ended yet

  \rm  \implies\frac{1}{x - y}  =  \frac{1}{11}  \implies  \boxed{x - y = 5}

and

  \rm \frac{1}{x + y} =  \frac{1}{11} \implies \boxed{x + y = 11}

Using elimination once again

 \rm  \:  \:  \:  \: x - y  = 5\\  \rm \boxed{ - }x + y = 11 \\  -  -  -  -  -  -  -  \\  \rm  \boxed{y = 3} \:and \boxed{x = 8}
