A computer store decides to increase the prices of all the items it sells by 15%. the store manager uses matrices to prepare the

new price list. matrix a contains the unit price of each product in each category. matrix b contains the revised price of each item in each category. how can the manager obtain the entries for matrix b? a. by adding 15 to each entry of matrix a b. by multiplying each entry of matrix a by 15 c. by multiplying each entry of matrix a by 1.15 d. by multiplying each entry of matrix a by 0.15

The matrix exists as a set of numbers placed in rows and columns to create a rectangular array. The manager could achieve scalar multiplication on Matrix A, utilizing the scalar 1.15.

<h3>What is the matrix?</h3>

The matrix exists as a set of numbers placed in rows and columns to create a rectangular array. The numbers exist named the elements, or entries, of the matrix. Matrices contain wide applications in engineering, physics, economics, and statistics as well as in different branches of mathematics.

Increasing the price by 15% would mean we exist taking 100% of the value + another 15%

100 + 15 = 115%

115% = 115/100 = 1.15.

Multiplying every value in Matrix A by 1.15 will give the price raised by 15%.

Therefore, the correct answer is option c. by multiplying each entry of matrix a by 1.15.

Prove that if an integer is a perfect square and a perfect cube, simultaneously, then it is either of the form 7k or 7k+1
Bogdan [553]
If an integer is both a square and a cube, it can be of the form:
<span>(<span>a3</span><span>)^2</span></span>
Now,
since a cube can be of the form 7k or 7k+-1(thanks to FoolForMath),
 we write
<span><span>a^3</span>=7k</span>
and get the no to be
49k^2
, which is in the form of 7 times something
<span>49<span>k^2</span>=7×(7<span>k^2</span>)</span>
Now put
<span><span>a^3</span>=7k+−1</span> Square it
and you'll get a number in the form of (7times something +1)

You want to go to europe 5 years from now, and you can save $3,100 per year, beginning one year from today. you plan to deposit
Tanzania [10]
This is the concept of application of compound interest, to calculate the amount I will have after the 5th deposit we proceed as follows;
A=p(1+r/100)^n
where;
A=future amount
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of years
thus substituting the values in our formula we get:
A=3,100(1+8.5/100)^5
A=3,100(1+0.085)^5
A=3100(1.085)^5
A=4,666.34
The amount of money after 5 years will be $4,666.24

Find the area of the polygon with vertices of A(0,1), B(0,5), C(4,5), and D(6,1).
Papessa [141]

20

If you draw that out on a coordinate grid, you get a trapezoid with one base 6 units long, one base 4 units long and a height of 4. Using the formula for area of a trapezoid 

 h(b1 + b2)/2

where h is the height, 4, b1 is a base, 6, b2 is the other base, 4, we get

4(4+6)/2

which is 4(10)/2 or 40/2

which gets us the answer, 20

The sum of two consecutive integers is – 57. Find the two integers.
aliina [53]

Answer:

the integers are -28 and -29

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets do math:

When i was little this was hard but now its pretty easy

look two consecutive numbers are like 1, 2, 3, their difference is usually 1

our equation looks like this:

-57=x+(x-1)

we add 1 to both sides and get:

-56=2x

divide by 2 because im smart

-28=x

thats one number but how 'bout the other one?

we just have to subtract 1 and get -29

the end.
