2.25 for the first mile. That leaves 4.2 miles.
4 * 0.1 = 0.4
0.15 * 4 = $6.00
0.15 * 2 = 0.3
$6.30 + $2.25 = $8.55
$10.00 - $8.55 = $1.45
The driver's tip was $1.45.
Answer: The required characteristic polynomial of the given matrix A is 
Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the characteristic polynomial of the following 3 × 3 matrix A with unknown variable x :
![A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\4&-3&4\\-2&0&-3\end{array}\right].](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D0%260%261%5C%5C4%26-3%264%5C%5C-2%260%26-3%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D.)
We know that
for any square matrix M, the characteristic polynomial is given by
where I is an identity matrix of same order as M.
Therefore, the characteristic polynomial of matrix A is
![|A-xI|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left|\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&0&1\\4&-3&4\\-2&0&-3\end{array}\right]-x\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{array}\right]\right|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left|\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-x&0&1\\4&-3-x&4\\-2&0&-3-x\end{array}\right] \right|=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow -x(3+x)^2+1(0-6-2x)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x+3)(-3x-x^2-2)=0\\\\\Rightarrow (x+3)(x^2+3x+2)=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^3+6x+11x+6=0.](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%7CA-xI%7C%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%5Cleft%7C%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D0%260%261%5C%5C4%26-3%264%5C%5C-2%260%26-3%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D-x%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%260%260%5C%5C0%261%260%5C%5C0%260%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%5Cright%7C%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%5Cleft%7C%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D-x%260%261%5C%5C4%26-3-x%264%5C%5C-2%260%26-3-x%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cright%7C%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20-x%283%2Bx%29%5E2%2B1%280-6-2x%29%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%20%28x%2B3%29%28-3x-x%5E2-2%29%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20%28x%2B3%29%28x%5E2%2B3x%2B2%29%3D0%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CRightarrow%20x%5E3%2B6x%2B11x%2B6%3D0.)
Thus, the required characteristic polynomial of the given matrix A is 
2/5 is closer to 0
4/7 is closer to 1
the fraction would be 34/35 and is closer to 1 in decimal form it's about .97
Answer:
-3=x
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must add the X's on each side which gives you: 1x-2= -x - 4 - 4
Next you must add the first number 4 to the - 2 on the other side.
Then you do the exact same thing with the other number 4.
After that you get 1x+6=-x, then you subtract the 1 x with the -x to get 6= -2x.
Finally divide both sides by 2 and your final answer is -3 = x
