(1 point) The matrix 6 4 -7 k is invertible if and only if k is not equal to

Answer:

  k ≠ -14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

A square matrix is invertible if and only if its determinant is not zero.

<h3>Determinant</h3>

The determinant of a 2×2 matrix is the difference of the products of the diagonal terms and the off-diagonal terms:

  det = (6)(k) -(-7)(4) = 6k +28

<h3>Restriction on k</h3>

The requirement that the determinant is not zero places a restriction on k.

  6k +28 ≠ 0

  k +14/3 ≠ 0 . . . . . . divide by 6

  k ≠ -14/3 . . . . . . . . subtract 14/3

For the matrix to be invertible, the value of k must not be -14/3.

The gravitational force, F, on a rocket at a distance, from the center of the earth is given by F = k / (r^2), where k = 10 ^3 n
makvit [3.9K]
F = k / (r^2)
dF/dt = -2k / (r^3) dr/dt

When r = 10^4 km and dr/dt = 0.2 km/sec
dF/dt = -2(10)^3 (0.2) / ((10^4)^3) = -400 / 10^7 = -0.00004 N/s

The gravitational force is changing at the rate of -0.00004 N/s

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 2x-6. The perimeter of the triangle is 38. Find X
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the three sides.    

In an isosceles the legs are equal (2x - 6) and the base is x

Perimeter = (x) + (2x - 6) + (2x - 6)

          38  = 5x - 12

        38 + 12 = 5x

            50 =   5x

              \frac{50}{5} = \frac{5x}{5}

               10 = x

200 miles. 2.5 divided by 3/4 is 3.33333-, multiplying the given by 60 would give us 199.98, which you can round to 200.
