-x=-y+2 and 3y+4=2x solve using matrices

MissTica

$\begin{cases}-x=-y+2\\3y+4=2x\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}x-y=-2\\2x-3y=4\end{cases}$

In matrix form, this is

$\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-2\\4\end{bmatrix}$

The coefficient matrix has determinant

$\begin{vmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{vmatrix}=-3+2=-1\neq0$

so it has an inverse, which is

$\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}^{-1}=\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}$

Multiply both sides by the inverse matrix:

$\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}1&-1\\2&-3\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}3&-1\\2&-1\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}-2\\4\end{bmatrix}$

$\implies\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}-10\\-8\end{bmatrix}$

so that $x=-10$ and $y=-8$ .

While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the

atroni [7]

Answer:

0.79 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there is a tool at the top of the building which is dropped by a worker and it follows the following equation at every instant of time .

$h(t)=-16t^{2} +h_{0}$

where $h_{0} =10 feet$

We know that this height is measured from the base of the building which means that when the tool reaches the bottom of the building it has h = 0 feet.

Let this be done at time t

h(t) = 0

$-16t^{2} +10=0$

$t^{2} =\frac{10}{16}$

$t=\frac{\sqrt{10} }{4}$

t = 0.79 sec

Therefore the total time taken by the tool to reach the bottom of the building is 0.79 sec.
