The value of the car after three years is £6936

<h3>How to determine the value of the car?</h3>

The initial value of the car is given as:

Value = £12000

When the value depreciates by 20% after the first year, the new value of the car is:

New = £12000 * (1 - 20%)

Evaluate

New = £9600

When the value depreciates by 15% after the second year, the new value of the car is:

New = £9600* (1 - 15%)

Evaluate

New = £8160

When the value depreciates by 15% after the third year, the new value of the car is:

New = £8160 * (1 - 15%)

Evaluate

New = £6936

Hence, the value of the car after three years is £6936

Find the inverse of the given matrix, if it exists.Aequals=left bracket Start 3 By 3 Matrix 1st Row 1st Column 1 2nd Column 0 3

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

$A^{-1}=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} \frac{1}{9} & \frac{4}{27} & - \frac{2}{27} \\\\ \frac{8}{9} & \frac{5}{27} & \frac{11}{27} \\\\ - \frac{4}{9} & \frac{2}{27} & - \frac{1}{27} \end{array} \right]$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the inverse of $A=\left[ \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 0 & -2 \\\\ 4 & 1 & 3 \\\\ -4 & 2 & 3 \end{array} \right]$

To find the inverse matrix, augment it with the identity matrix and perform row operations trying to make the identity matrix to the left. Then to the right will be inverse matrix.

So, augment the matrix with identity matrix:

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 4&1&3&0&1&0 \\\\ -4&2&3&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 1 multiplied by 4 from row 2

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ -4&2&3&0&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Add row 1 multiplied by 4 to row 3

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ 0&2&-5&4&0&1\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 2 multiplied by 2 from row 3

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ 0&0&-27&12&-2&1\end{array}\right]$

Divide row 3 by −27

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&-2&1&0&0 \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ 0&0&1&- \frac{4}{9}&\frac{2}{27}&- \frac{1}{27}\end{array}\right]$

Add row 3 multiplied by 2 to row 1

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&0&\frac{1}{9}&\frac{4}{27}&- \frac{2}{27} \\\\ 0&1&11&-4&1&0 \\\\ 0&0&1&- \frac{4}{9}&\frac{2}{27}&- \frac{1}{27}\end{array}\right]$

Subtract row 3 multiplied by 11 from row 2

$\left[ \begin{array}{ccc|ccc}1&0&0&\frac{1}{9}&\frac{4}{27}&- \frac{2}{27} \\\\ 0&1&0&\frac{8}{9}&\frac{5}{27}&\frac{11}{27} \\\\ 0&0&1&- \frac{4}{9}&\frac{2}{27}&- \frac{1}{27}\end{array}\right]$

As can be seen, we have obtained the identity matrix to the left. So, we are done.
