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]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%201%20%26%200%20%26%20-2%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%204%20%26%201%20%26%203%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-4%20%26%202%20%26%203%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5Cright%5D)
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]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Cccc%7D1%260%26-2%261%260%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%204%261%263%260%261%260%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20-4%262%263%260%260%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

As can be seen, we have obtained the identity matrix to the left. So, we are done.
Answer: 6 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Volume of the rectangular prism is 
Length of the cubic block is 
Volume of each cubic block is

Suppose, n blocks are required to measure the volume of Prism

Thus, 6 blocks are required to measure the volume of prism.
Use pythagorians theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2. 4^+20^ = 20.40 feet. The ladder is 20.40 feet long.
Answer:
Number 200 decreased by 10% (10 percent) of its value (percentage decrease) and calculated absolute change (actual difference). Answer: percentage decreased number = 180, absolute change (actual difference) = -20
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Subtract 6x from both sides so now you have -2y = -6x + 18
2. Divide everything by -2, then you would have y = 3x - 9
3. The equation is now in slope intercept form so the answer is 3.
