Worksheet 1
9 problems- Solve using matrices: 5x + 2y + z = 15, 3x - y + 4z = 10, x + 3y - 2z = 5
- A city's population growth is modeled by the system of differential equations: dP/dt = 0.02P - 0.0001P² - 0.005PW and dW/dt = -0.03W + 0.0002PW, where P represents the population in thousands and W represents the number of water treatment facilities. If the initial conditions are P(0) = 150 and W(0) = 8, use matrix methods to find the equilibrium point where both population and water facilities remain constant over time.
- Solve using matrices: 6x + y - z = 11, x - 6y + 2z = -1, 2x + y + z = 16

7 problems- A city is planning a new public transportation system with three intersecting subway lines. The Blue Line can be modeled by the equation 2x + 3y - z = 5, the Red Line by x - y + 2z = 3, and the Green Line by 3x + y - 4z = -2. The city engineers need to determine if all three lines intersect at a single station point. Find the coordinates of the intersection point if it exists.
- A city is planning a new public transportation system with three intersecting routes. Route A can be modeled by the equation 2x + 3y - z = 8, Route B by x - 2y + 4z = 3, and Route C by 3x + y - 2z = 7. The city planners need to determine the coordinates of the central station where all three routes intersect. Find the intersection point of these three routes.
- Solve using matrices: 9x + 7y - 5z = 23, 4x - 6y + 8z = 14, 3x + 5y - 2z = 19

5 problems- Emma is designing a geometric pattern on a coordinate grid. The pattern includes a quadrilateral with vertices at A(-5, 5), B(5, 15), C(15, 5), and D(5, -5). She wants to determine if the diagonals AC and BD bisect each other by finding their intersection point. Represent the two diagonals as a system of linear equations and use the inverse matrix method to find the coordinates of the intersection point.
- A city's traffic engineering department is analyzing the flow of vehicles through three interconnected intersections. The traffic flow equations are: 2x + y - z = 80 (vehicles per hour entering Intersection A), x - 3y + 2z = 60 (vehicles per hour entering Intersection B), and 3x + 2y - 4z = 100 (vehicles per hour entering Intersection C), where x, y, and z represent the traffic flows on three connecting roads. Using matrix methods, determine the traffic flow on each road that satisfies all three intersection equations simultaneously.
- A city's traffic engineering department is modeling traffic flow between three interconnected intersections. The traffic entering and leaving each intersection per hour (in vehicles) is described by the system: Intersection A: 2x + y - z = 80, Intersection B: x - 3y + 2z = 60, Intersection C: 3x + 2y - 4z = 100, where x, y, and z represent the traffic flows on roads AB, BC, and CA respectively. Determine the traffic flow on each road using matrix methods.
